“But there is much more than just the Bingo,” according to
Jail Brakers Founder and Executive Director Cheryl Niemo. “There will be a silent auction and door prizes, lunch and refreshments, face painting for children and live entertainment by Northwest Highway—Les Urban,
Gloria Gilard Buchfield, and Andy Andrick.”

Jail Brakers is a ministry
of the Tree of Life Congregation. Its mission is to:
Raise
awareness about the needs and concerns of the children and families who have
been affected by incarceration and provide opportunities to give children and
families a voice and a place to be heard with respect and compassion. Together,
we address the stigma that perpetuates fear, shame and isolation surrounding
incarceration, and begin to cultivate hope.
