Dearest Friends and Community Partners,

Due to circumstances beyond our control and in light of the coronavirus, Amber Tamblyn has cancelled her flight to Asheville. We at Our VOICE regret to inform you that the Break the Silence Speakers Series event tonight has been cancelled. Because Break the Silence Speakers Series is our largest fundraiser of the year, we are currently discussing the next steps. We apologize for any inconvenience and we are so grateful for all the people and businesses who stand beside us. Thank you for your understanding, and during this time we hope that everyone in our community will take precautions to stay safe and healthy. We will be in touch as soon as we know more about the future of the 3rd annual event. If you still want to support Our VOICE’s programs, you can donate by texting BTS2020 to 50155 or by visiting https://donatenow.networkforgood.org/1397302.

Thank you for understanding!
