Branches of Hope: The Banyan Tree Women’s Collective Benefit

Why “Branches of Hope”

The Branches of Hope Benefit celebrates the strength, resilience, and interconnectedness of women like the roots of a banyan tree that support and sustain one another. Hosted by the Banyan Tree Women’s Collective (BTWC), this annual fundraiser brings together community members, advocates, and leaders to uplift women in transition and fund programs that empower healing, education, and economic independence.

This year’s proceeds will directly support:

o Heart and Home Women’s Shelter – providing safety and dignity for unhoused women

o Detention Center Women’s Empowerment Program – offering education, mentorship, and re-entry resources
Your participation helps plant seeds of stability and opportunity for women across our community.
