Bivona named 2024 Primary Beneficiary; Legacy of Love event announced

​MEG's Gift chose Bivona to be this year's primary beneficiary because their work aligns with ours. By partnering with them, MEG's Gift hopes to increase awareness of child abuse in our community.  In addition, our partnership will help support the crucial services Bivona provides to children and families.  We believe in Bivona's vision: to be "a community where all children are safe and free of abuse."

The Villa of Hope partners with individuals, families and communities to REBUILD relationships, RECOVER potential and RENEW hope for the future.
