2022 Blue Jean Ball

Dear Friends & Family,

Homesteads for Hope, Inc. is celebrating its 6th season of growing people's unique abilities at our 55 acre Community Farm located on Manitou Road and the Erie Canal in Rochester, NY. Our team is enthusiastic and proud of the work we do everyday that serves over 600 families a year, and we know there is still so much more that needs to be done to help more individuals with disabilities with our innovative opportunities offered at the Farm.

On Friday, August 26th we will be "Raising the Roof" at this years annual Blue Jean Ball on the long awaited construction of the 200 year old historic estate home on site which will be expanded to accommodate 6,000 SQFT of classrooms, teaching kitchen and transitional housing to triple our impact 12 months a year at the Farm. Last year, the Blue Jean Ball raised $50,000 and we have recently launched the Pave the Way Campaign to support capital improvements. It is our hope that we break ground on The Forever Homestead prior to the event, so you can visualize the shell of the new house. With your participation as a sponsor, donor and guest you can support the build to be finished by Spring 2023!

The Blue Jean Ball event this year you can expect Live Music from The Phat Kats on our new Concrete Barn Stage, amazing eats from Board & Bacon, drink experience from The Hitch & Swill Mobile Bar and Canal side Attractions such as Antique Truck photo booth. Our event will be an unforgettable evening you don't want to miss!

• If you cant attend, please consider a donation in lieu! All proceeds are going towards construction of the Forever Homestead.
