On the first day of spring, Great Falls Friends and Neighbors (GFFN) women’s club held a fundraiser to support SafeSpot Children’s Advocacy Center of Fairfax County. SafeSpot provides a child-friendly, culturally sensitive environment that promotes the safety and well-being of child victims of abuse while facilitating a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary team approach to the intervention, investigation, prosecution and treatment of sexual abuse and severe physical abuse.

The fundraiser was held in Great Falls at local favorite Our Mom Eugenia restaurant (1025 Seneca Road, Great Falls). The menu featured classic Greek fare which warmed the heart on the cold snowy day. In spite of the snowy spring weather, the event was well attended. The ladies of GFFN are grateful so many caring individuals braved the elements and came out to support such a worthy cause.
