Why Should I Attend?
​YOU have the power to make a real difference! Join us as we come together as a community to help those in need! Learn more about BRAWS mission and how you can help.  When you support BRAWS by sponsoring Mardi Bras, you will express your commitment to helping women and girls in crisis access necessities that are not covered by food stamps, provided by shelters and often overlooked during collection drives: pads, tampons, and underwear. Your generosity and compassion make an immediate difference. Our community has rallied together tremendously in the past few years and we rely on the compassionate support of friends like you to continue our mission.
Won't you join us to help bring dignity to women and girls in need?
