An awards night and major fundraiser for the Homeless and Needy
The host of the Heart Of Women Awards is Agape Outreach Inc. An organisation making a difference in the lives of hurting, broken and disenfranchised people. We show love first in actions and ultimately become one huge family. At Agape Outreach we strive to show the same self-sacrificial love to the needy, lost, broken, homeless and lonely; we strive to see the beauty in every person, showing them the respect they deserve.With meals on the streets, food hampers to families in need, helping people to set up in homes, training with basic life skills and developing housing we desperately need funding to support our cause
