Events Mother's Day Celebration
3rd Annual Mother's Day Celebration
2009 marked the third year of TRH's Mother's Day Celebration.
The Mother's Day Celebration is an opportunity to join The Restoration House in celebrating mothers everywhere. This year, this family fun event was held at the indoor amphitheatre at West Town Mall. Shannon and Marisa from Love89 came out and broadcasted live. There were also tons of activities for the kids including a moonwalk as well as food from Chick-fil-A and door prizes from some of your favorite spots in the mall as well as Love89.
This year over $5,200 was raised in honor of mother's everywhere. These funds go directly support the single mother families of The Restoration House.
