Mardi Bras Spokane

Proceeds from Mardi Bras 2021 benefit the VOA Hope House and Transitions' Women's Hearth. Together they provide wrap-around services for women experiencing homelessness, beginning in the day with the Women's Hearth drop-in center and ending in the evening with shelter at the Hope House Women's Center.
