Family Health Ministries' annual event at Duke Gardens was once again flooded with friends and torrents of rain.  In spite of the downpour, 260 people enjoyed live music by the EG Peters Band, "small plates" provided by Durham Catering, and auctions that netted over $19K. 

The entire event is on target to raise over $50K to help build the Leogane Family Health Center.  FHM is particularly grateful to all the businesses that contributed items and services, and to the 26 sponsors who made the evening possible.
