Boise's Riverside Hotel witnessed an outpouring of community spirit on Thursday, February 8th, 2024, as the Idaho Art Gallery's "Art for a Cause" event unfolded into a resounding success. With around 200 attendees, the evening was a successful night of art, music, and philanthropy, leaving a mark on the Nampa Family Justice Center and the WCA.

The Michele Eastland Trio's live music was nothing short of phenomenal, setting an amazing tone for the night. Attendees were treated to an unforgettable experience, complemented by moving speeches from the founders and leaders of WCA and Nampa Family Justice Center. Their powerful words underscored the urgency of supporting victims of domestic violence.

But most importantly, those in attendance were able to raise funds and support for the local victims of domestic violence, with the speakers sharing devastating and shocking numbers.

Domestic violence has emerged as the leading cause of homelessness in our community, particularly affecting families and children. In 2023, Idaho recorded 2,614 homeless youth, with the Ada County Family Services Center supporting 1,300 children in Ada County alone.

After years of feeling forgotten and being told they are less than, the WCA and Nampa Family Justice Center helps victims re-learn that they are wanted, they are loved, and they are of great value.
