A new nonprofit focused on trauma recovery and empowerment is inviting the community to celebrate its official launch with an evening of inspiration, connection and Italian cuisine.
EmpowerED Outreach will host its inaugural Community Launch, Learn & Dinner: A Knight in Italy on Sept. 5 at The Perfect Landing at 1505 Airport Road in Rockwall. The event offers attendees a unique blend of education, encouragement and celebration – all in support of trauma survivors.
The ticketed event will feature a catered pasta dinner from Olive Garden, Italian-inspired desserts, raffle prizes, interactive vendor booths and a bartender-curated “EmpowerED Pour Bar.” Guests will also enjoy a motivational affirmation icebreaker, an empowerment flower bar with roses donated by Roses by Abril and themed activities designed to foster healing and self-growth.
Child care will be available through a partnership with JungleTrek, which will provide pizza, games and supervision for children 5 and older.
Proceeds from the event – including ticket and raffle sales – will directly fund EmpowerED Outreach’s free trauma recovery workshops, therapy resources and empowerment events in Royse City, Rockwall and Hunt County. The organization also aims to provide no-cost therapy sessions for trauma survivors lacking access to traditional services.
Tickets must be purchased in advance; no tickets will be sold at the door. VIP and reserved table options are limited. Raffle entries can be bought during checkout or at the event.
