CASA Of Marion Light of Hope Benefit

Light of Hope Benefit featuring Bestselling Author Stephanie Land May 14, 2022 | 6pm "Every day, over 2.5 million nannies, house cleaners and care workers do the work of caring and cleaning in our homes. The majority of these workers are women, mostly women of color, who immigrated here in hope of a better life. They take care of what is most important to us, yet they are often the least valued and most vulnerable." ~Stephanie Land Stephanie Land’s bestselling debut memoir Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother’s Will to Survive recounts her harrowing saga as a single mom navigating the poverty trap. Her unflinching testimony exposes the physical, economic, and social brutality that domestic workers face, all while radiating a parent’s hope and resilience. Land’s story serves as the inspiration for Netflix’s Golden Globe Award-nominated original series Maid, starring Margaret Qualley, alongside Andie MacDowell, Nick Robinson and Anika Noni Rose. Join us in support of CASA of Marion County as Land shares her inspirational and compelling story of facing down America's class system. Purchase tickets at casamarionor.org/light-of-hope
