Mark your calendars and plan to join FACET Services, Inc. in celebrating its 14th Annual Legend's Luncheon

Proceeds from ticket sales and donations directly benefited families transitioning from the Harvest Center of Charlotte's Transformation Program and the YWCA's Families Together Program, and were distributed evenly among the families based on size. ALL monetary donations were used to purchase new household items to help families transition from homelessness to independent living and permanent housing for a more stabilized future. The luncheon also provided a forum to recognize a "Legend" for her outstanding work in the community.
