San Jose, California (PRWEB) September 18, 2013 -- On Friday, September 20th, at the Hyatt Regency – Santa Clara, Cityteam will be celebrating its 28th Annual Gala and Benefit for Heritage Home. Cityteam Heritage Home has been saving the lives of homeless and abandoned pregnant women and their newborn babies for over two decades (since 1984). The program not only gives the women a safe home to live in and food but also has a set curriculum for the mothers including: parenting, health and nutrition, cooking, addiction recovery, anger management, relapse prevention, money management, GED preparation, and job skills. The mothers can stay the whole term of their pregnancy and several months after their baby is born until they are able to find stable housing and safe childcare as they go to college or work.

“Our goal is to help these mothers break the destructive patterns of poverty, abuse, and often addiction and equip them to achieve their academic and career goals that will enable them to live self-sufficient, productive lives and become loving, responsible mothers,” said Honili Sema, Women’s Program Director for Cityteam.

This year’s theme of the Gala is “Cherish”. It’s a time to cherish and hold dear the precious lives of the women and babies that come to us in their time of need. When these mothers arrive at Heritage Home, they are desperate to find ways to transform their lives and become solid, healthy moms for their babies. We cherish these women for making that important decision to want to change their lives. This year’s Heritage Home Gala and Benefit is sold out with over 300 people attending this event at the Hyatt Regency in Santa Clara.

“We are so thankful for everyone that has donated and volunteered at Cityteam Heritage Home throughout our history. This is a vital program that our community needs throughout the Bay Area and across the nation. We are here to equip and mentor these new mothers in becoming healthy moms that can take care of the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of their children as they grow,” said Ms. Sema.
