Mark your calendars for our 3rd annual Steel Toes & Stilettos gala on Saturday, March 23, and help us unlock the door to a home for a veteran this year! Get ready to enjoy an evening of fun, food, and drinks at Tattersall Distilling in River Falls, all for a great cause... but make sure you plan to leave room for the Dessert Dash! 

At Steel Toes & Stilettos: All Roads Lead Home, we're raising funds to build a special home for a veteran. Nearly 1.5 million veterans pay at least 50% of their income on housing. Our most recent veterans who served following 9/11 have returned to a slow-growing economy, coupled with rising housing costs, making the transition to civilian life even harder. Nearly half of female veterans who are single moms spend more than 30% of their income on housing; about a quarter of the 2.5 million veterans heading households are at least 55 years of age and have high housing cost burdens. 

As we recognize the challenges veterans face, our goal is to build a home for a veteran/family to thank them for their service and help offset the unique costs they encounter as they settle back into civilian life. Join us for a very special gala event, March 23 at Tattersall Distilling in River Falls, WI. The event will feature a cocktail hour, silent auction, dinner, a special program, a dessert dash, and NEW this year: a live auction - and more!
