GATHER AROUND THE TABLE. HELP HOPE TAKE ROOT.

Thursday, November 5, 2026
6:00–9:00 p.m.
Brooklawn Campus
3121 Brooklawn Campus Drive, Louisville, Kentucky
Attire: Country Chic

Reserve your seat, host a table, or become a sponsor for Harvest for Hope 2026—an unforgettable evening of food, fellowship, and purpose benefiting Kentucky children and families.

Guests will enjoy live music, passed appetizers, a locally sourced five-course dinner prepared by outstanding Louisville chefs, an online silent auction, and an inspiring mission program featuring Bellewood & Brooklawn alumni and other members of our community.

Together, we will help children and families facing adversity find hope, healing, safety, and belonging.

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

In Fiscal Year 2026, Bellewood & Brooklawn served 299 individuals across all programs—up from 249 the previous year. Most notably, the number of children receiving residential care more than doubled, increasing from 63 in Fiscal Year 2025 to 137 in Fiscal Year 2026.

This progress is significant, but Kentucky’s need for appropriate treatment remains urgent. Even when a residential cottage reaches 94% capacity, public reimbursement covers only 81% of the actual cost of care.

Every ticket, table, sponsorship, auction bid, and donation helps bridge that gap and sustain trauma-informed residential treatment, family preservation, therapeutic foster care and adoption, independent living, outpatient therapy, and other community-based services.

Together, we can help more children and families find hope, healing, safety, and belonging.
