Ultimate Porch Party at Hill House in Durham

hill_house_durham

Hostery Co. is sponsoring the Ultimate Porch Party in Durham at the beautiful Hill House, the headquarters for the Junior League of Durham and Orange County. Join us for an evening of outdoor shopping, fundraising, and friend making!

This event benefits nonprofit Designed For Joy in Downtown Raleigh, a transitional work experience for women in Raleigh emerging from trafficking, homelessness, time in prison, substance use and other vulnerable situations. Your partnership allows us to meet the ongoing need for safe, living wage work. Since our start in 2017, we've hired over 50 women and we've given $140,000 in living wages.

This event is in partnership with Durham nonprofit Helius, business coaching & training for ​​​necessity-driven entrepreneurs​​​​​​​​.
