The Phoenix Dream Center

The Phoenix Dream Center’s ‘Night of Dreams’ gala is approaching, and we need your help. We’re looking for donations for our silent auction, a key part of our fundraising effort to support the Life Recovery Program. 🌟

Whether it’s a fantastic date night package, a gift certificate, a unique product, or a special service, your contributions can make a huge difference. Not only will your business receive recognition during the event, but 100% of the proceeds will go directly toward supporting those in need in our community.

Join us in making a difference and help us ensure the success of our Life Recovery Program for another year.

July 31, 2023 was World Day Against Trafficking Persons

If you’d like to learn more about this subject but can’t bring yourself to read books written by survivors or view movies on the topic, please consider reading my book Saving Aimee/Saving Margo. You will learn how an upper middle class teen can be groomed by traffickers. Please help me raise awareness.


Book Launch:
