Jackson House Thankful Gala Raises Funds for Short-Term Emergency Assistance

With donations from the community, Jackson House provides short-term emergency assistance with food, clothing, and infant/toddler needs in Garland County.

Jackson House is holding its 6th annual Dorothy Morris Thankful Gala to benefit those served through Jackson House. As the inflationary economy continues many families and seniors are struggling to meet their basic needs. Focusing on good, Jackson House has had to purchase more food this year than ever before, paying higher prices to make and serve lunch and provide groceries to the community. 

Jackson House needs your help. Please join them Saturday, November 19, at the Hamp Williams Building, 500 Ouachita Avenue, in Hot Springs for their “Thankful Gala.” Doors open at 6 PM and dinner begins at 6:30 PM. 

Tickets are $90 each and can be purchased online or donations can be made at www.jacksonhouse.org, or by calling 501-623-4048. Tickets can also be purchased at Jackson House at 705 Malvern Avenue. Remember, “Every Dollar, Every Item, Every Person, Counts!”

Jackson House Crisis Intervention, Inc. is an inclusive community crisis center that provides short-term emergency assistance for basic needs, food, clothing, infant/toddler needs, etc., without regard to race, creed, gender, religion, or nationality.
