Treetops Collective 4th Annual Celebration will be celebrated virtually Tuesday, Sept. 22, at 7 p.m., sharing stories from New Americans and local women leaders about what is grounding them and keeping them connected and striving toward growth in this changing time.

“There is so much to celebrate, even as 2020 has looked much differently than anticipated, as women are saving for their future, finding new job opportunities, and building new friendships that bridge cultures and create a sense of mutuality that we need as we grow forward together,” according to supplied material.
   

Registration to the event will also include entry into the online auction from Sept.18 until the event begins on the Sept. 22.

“Auction items have been carefully curated from local businesses and creatives,” according to supplied material. “From modern quilts, luxury beauty, to travel and spa experiences — you are sure to find something you’ll love.”
 

Treetops Collective is a local nonprofit serving women and teens who have been resettled as refugees, offering “holistic support as they connected new neighbors to people and opportunities to create a more welcoming community where everyone feels a sense of belonging,” according to supplied material.

They are committed to walking alongside women “as they set goals for their future and use their creative gifts and skills to impact their new community” here in West Michigan.
