  • Join Us for the 9th Annual Raising Hope Blue Tie Gala
    March 21, 2026 | River Spirit Casino Resort

    Step into an unforgettable evening where elegance meets purpose. The Raising Hope Blue Tie Gala is more than just an event—it’s a movement of compassion, community, and change.

    This year’s gala will captivate your senses with an immersive walk-through experience, live entertainment, gourmet dining, and a DJ-led after-party you won’t forget. You’ll connect with like-minded advocates, business leaders, and changemakers—all united by one powerful mission: to bring freedom and healing to children who have survived sex trafficking.

    Every dollar raised directly supports The Demand Project’s Mount Arukah Campus—the nation’s largest restoration campus for girls ages 11–17 overcoming the trauma of exploitation. Your participation fuels safe housing, therapy, education, and long-term restoration for these brave survivors.

    Together, we can transform pain into purpose and survival into strength.
    Reserve your seat today and stand with us in raising hope for those who need it most.
