Topeka Gives
Topeka Gives, held June 3, was a fun gathering of 140 local organizations pooling their energy and enthusiasm for responding to local needs and charitable giving. Your gifts to The Sanctuary totaled $715.00 and The Topeka Community Foundation's matching gift was $95.58, which gave us a grand total to $810.38.
During this campaign we also received additional gifts of $1100.00. Thank you so much! This enables us to serve whomever might want to use our services, regardless of their ability to pay.Thank you!
Topeka Community Conversation on Poverty
We attended this event looking and listening for ways that The Sanctuary might respond to the needs of the poor. We made some good connections, got needed information for a client, and are continuing the conversation.

I attended this retreat held in Kansas City. We are currently looking at ways to bring Fr. Meninger to Topeka in 2015! Read a little about this retreat in my blog.
