Editor,

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, several dedicated members of the Hamilton County community gathered recently to raise money and help victims of crime and abuse. On behalf of Prevail, I would like to express our thanks for the recent fundraiser held at 3Ds’ Pub & Café in Carmel. U.S. Foods donated the provisions, Barometer Soup performed, Glazer’s, Pearl Vodka and Triton Brewing donated libations, numerous individuals and businesses donated goods and services, and bringing it all together was Erin Heller of 3Ds’ Pub & Café and Brian Kelly and Steve Greenberg, owners of Current Publishing. What fantastic assets Erin, Brian and Steve are to our communities.

Most special to me was, on the eve of the day we gathered with families as thankful and grateful Americans, patrons of 3Ds’ joined invited guests and gave generously by buying items at the auction and graciously donated to help victims of verbal, physical and sexual abuse. Please visit www.Prevailinc.com or call Prevail to learn how Prevail helps break the cycle of abuse. Be prepared to be shocked at how often violence toward children and women happens right here in Hamilton County. Please consider this 25-year, local not-for-profit in your year-end giving. May you and your family peacefully enjoy the holidays and remember those who won’t.
