Help is on the Way: Broadway & Beyond

About

REAF's 32nd annual Help is on the Way concert and gala benefiting Project Open Hand and REAF's Small Emergency Grants Program. For more than 30 years, the Richmond/Ermet Aid Foundation (REAF) has been bringing people together through the power of live performance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Founded by two remarkable mothers who believed that compassion, generosity, and the arts could change lives, REAF has remained true to that vision. Through the extraordinary generosity of our performers, audiences, sponsors, and volunteers, we have distributed more than $5 million to over 32 nonprofit organizations providing HIV services, hunger and food insecurity programs, and support for homeless youth and underserved seniors.
