Thank you so much for everyone that attended our annual Coming Home to Love celebration and fundraiser Friday, February 6, 2026 at the Norman B. Mears Library at the University of Sioux Falls. This was a big year as we celebrated 20 years since the founding of Theresa’s House! The evening featured a performance from the USF Concert Chorale led by Dr. DeHoogh-Kliewer, stories of transformation, and a dessert auction.
This annual fundraiser helps us cover operating costs for Theresa’s House including food, clothing, educational supplies, and maintenance costs. But this year, we had an additional urgent need to build a potable water reservoir on the Theresa’s House compound. Thank you to all of our donors and volunteers who made this evening possible!
