June 5, 2018 | Four Seasons
We can not thank you enough for attending the 5th Annual DC Wise Soirée! With your generous donations, we surpassed our goal of raising $150,000 for our partner, Safe Shores. None of this would be possible without you!
In this time of the “Me Too” movement, Safe Shores has the essential role of supporting, protecting and empowering D.C.’s most vulnerable. We are honored to help support them as they expand into outreach, education and intervention as the keys to prevention of trauma and violence.
WE love our Sponsors
Becoming a DC WISE sponsor is easy to do and creates an impact well beyond the events you help make possible. Sponsorship dollars enable our partners to make nimble financial decisions, whether to add a staff member, fund a new program, or fill in the gaps where city budgets fall short. Plus, it’s good press and exposure for you and your business.
