HopeFest 2025

Saturday, September 27, 2025

Join us for HopeFest 2025, Alexandra House’s annual community event, as we kick off Domestic Violence Awareness Month this fall! HopeFest is about more than just a day of activities — it’s a powerful gathering to raise awareness, remember those we have lost, and honor the courage of survivors.

Together, we’ll walk, celebrate, and stand united against domestic and sexual violence. The event features a brief program, a 1+ mile walk, the crowd-favorite Kidz Dash, and a lively Kidz Zone with a balloon twister, face painter, and games. Plus, enjoy a delicious BBQ meal from The Bones Brothers and connect with community partners at our vendor and exhibitor resource fair.

HopeFest is a family-friendly, community-driven event that grows bigger every year — a testament to the increasing number of people committed to making a difference. Your participation helps raise critical funds that ensure survivors have access to safety, advocacy, and the resources they need to heal and thrive.

We can’t wait to see you there — to stand together, to celebrate resilience, and to remind survivors that they are never alone. Because when we come together, we create a future filled with hope.
