Welcome House – 10th Annual Breakfast
Welcome House’s 10th Annual Breakfast brought down the house, while building a new house! Keynote speaker Cris Carter, of NFL fame, delivered a powerful message about his addiction and recovery to the packed house in attendance. Included in the festive morning were a raffle and live auction to play golf with Tom Watson. Welcome House will unveil a new recovery center in Midtown very soon. Proceeds support the recovery programs at Welcome House.
