Pregnancy Help Center Hosts Denim And Diamonds Banquet

Date:

The Pregnancy Help Center of Lufkin (PHCOL) is hosting the biannual Denim and Diamonds Banquet this month. On November 17, 2015, guests will have a chance to help the Center achieve it’s budget expenses for the year, make year-end donations, as well as hear amazing testimonies highlighting the past, present, and future of Pregnancy Help Center.

This year, however, the banquet is celebrating more than the excitement of women helped and lives changed.

“We are celebrating the outcome of a five year plan,” says Paula Havard, Executive Director of PHCOL. “By the grace of God, we finally have our new building on Gaslight Boulevard. The year-end gifts from the banquet will be going to the $400,000 loan taken out to support the construction.”

The banquet will be held at the Pitser Garrison Convention Center in Lufkin. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. and the program will be held from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Guests may choose to purchase a table sponsorship for $500 or a single ticket for $35. There are a limited number of tickets available at this time.

For more information, or to purchase tickets, stop by the new location at 401 Gaslight Blvd., call 936-632-9292, or visit the Pregnancy Help Center Facebook Page.
