Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center (SPARCC) hosted another unforgettable SPARCCling Holiday Luncheon on Monday, December 8, where more than 300 guests gathered at Michael’s On East to celebrate the spirit of the season and support survivors of domestic and sexual violence. The festive event sparkled from start to finish. Attendees arrived with generous donations of unwrapped toys, gifts, and gift cards for SPARCC’s annual Holiday Toy Store, ensuring that children, teens, and moms served by SPARCC will experience extra joy this holiday season. Guests enjoyed a gourmet lunch at Michael’s On East, entertainment by the Pop Orchestra, and lively bidding on an array of holiday-themed auction items. Organized by SPARCC Auxiliary members and led by co-chairs Melissa Silva, Cator Hartley, and Tina McGovern, the luncheon offered a warm and festive experience for all who attended. SPARCC also expresses gratitude to its Presenting Sponsor, First Horizon Bank, along with many generous sponsors, donors, and attendees who helped make the luncheon a wonderful success.
