Full Moon Howl

Full Moon Howl, which began in 2002 as a small intimate gathering of friends supporting community mental health services, has transformed into an eagerly anticipated, large-scale event that raises meaningful funds to positively impact Peace River Center’s clients and meet its mission to engage, restore and empower individuals in our community to reach their fullest potential.

Full Moon Howl, presented by Kelley Buick GMC and CPS Investment Advisors, takes place in February. This invite-only event begins with the annual Clay Pigeon Invitational on Friday morning and is followed by an evening event on Saturday, which brings together more than 600 attendees for camaraderie, food, drink, a live and silent auction, a live band, and dancing.

Save the Date: Friday, February 5 and Saturday, February 6, 2027

The Coffee Benefit

The Coffee Benefit has a great history of bringing women together to support our community. This event allows us to share with one another while raising impactful dollars to improve the lives of children in our community and lift up individuals who are living in dangerous situations.

After pausing the Coffee Benefit for several years, in 2018 this meaningful event returned. Since reestablishing the event, generous donors have helped raise over $26,295.00 to benefit women and children served by PRC’s domestic violence shelter.

PRC’s Domestic Violence program is a free 24-hour service provided to our community. It enables individuals and their children to break free of their volatile living conditions through shelter services or transform their lives as they remain in the community through safety planning and additional resources.
