About Drummond House

On February 24th join our team for the Coldest Night of the Year and be a part of a story that restores hope in our community. Together we will walk to raise funds for Drummond House- a transitional home for women and children. Drummond House is much more than a place to stay. There is an incredible transformation that happens during the 3- 6 month program. Each resident, including the children, work through an individualized program promoting restoration of hope, healthy tools, and realistic goals. The Coldest Night of the Year is an opportunity for our community to make a difference in the lives of these of women and children, providing them hope for their future.
