Thank you, Embassy Suites!!!

We are especially grateful for the generosity and partnership of Embassy Suites.

Embassy Suites hosts Trick or Suite, a family-oriented trick-or-treating event for children of Northwest Arkansas who are affected by illness, or physical and/or learning disabilities. Northwest businesses and nonprofits come together to provide a fun, interactive evening for children–thanks to the hard work and compassionate vision of Embassy Suites and its staff!

We are honored to be affiliated with Trick or Suite–and especially to be one of the beneficiaries of the event.

To learn how your company can be a part of the 2016 Trick or Suite, contact Kasey Bare, 479.845.3211.

Special thanks to Painting with a Twist for partnering with us to provide an afternoon with laughter and memories with friends (new and familiar!) as we paint with a purpose!

Join us January 31, 2016, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. as we paint an Arkansas Sunset!

We were overwhelmed with the support shown to our Giving Tuesday campaign! We exceeded our goal of $2000 in donations and we cannot say how thankful we are to all of you that donated.

Your donation helps – no matter how big or small. This time of year the services provided by the Northwest Arkansas Women’s Shelter are needed more than ever. Holidays should be a time for peace and joy but, for those who will come to the shelter, their holiday season will have been filled with fear and violence.

As well as providing safe shelter and practical assistance, we also provide families that spend their Christmas with us a festive meal and gifts – all of which have been donated by the community.

Nearly half of those who use the Northwest Arkansas Women’s Shelter are children and we strive to ensure that these children receive a little something from Santa on Christmas morning.

If you would like to donate a gift please contact Amber at alacewell@nwaws.org or 479 246 0353 ext 103.
