Laughter, chatter, and a long table of donated items filled the room at the 4-H building Saturday evening. Organizations and individuals gathered to support the annual benefit dinner with Community Care of Northeast Indiana.

Christine Walker, executive director of Community Care of Northeast Indiana, detailed a long list of critical resources the organization has provided to the community throughout the last year. Walker also announced a new campaign to raise $175,000 for the purchase of Hannah’s House.
Residents and staff at Hannah’s House also attended the event. A video testimony played for attendees as several women detailed their experiences with addiction and recovery. (Photos by Sydney Kent)
