Come join us for our biggest fundraising event of the year! We have confirmed at least 2 of the 13 other Gold Star Families from the Abbey Gate 13 will be in attendance as well (possibly more special guests as well...stay tuned). In addition, we have a very special keynote speaker coming to give you one of the most powerful speeches you have ever heard. His name is Adam Smith and he is a former Special Forces Green Beret who spent 17 years in the Army. He is currently running for office in North Carolina. He speaks to various audiences about his military experiences, his struggle with PTSD that nearly led to suicide, and the importance of serving others. His speaking engagements focus on leadership, motivation, and personal action. You can learn more about his speaking on his website, therealadamsmith.com. Trust me you will not want to miss his speech. Come join us and make this a night you will never forget. Live & silent auctions, music, open bar and plated dinner. This is an event you will not want to miss. Get your tickets or tables before we sell out at www.thefreedom13.org. There are a handful of sponsorships remaining including the title sponsor position. Still accepting silent auction donation items as well. Hope to see you on February 27th! 
This isn’t just a gala—it’s a movement. Will you be there to be part of it?
