Celebration meets purpose this winter as Mother’s Grace hosts Grace in Motion, a new signature fundraising event designed to support Arizona mothers and families facing acute crisis. The event will take place Thursday, Feb. 26, 2026, from 6 to 10 p.m. inside a private airplane hangar at the Scottsdale Airpark. Guests will enjoy great food and drinks, live music, dancing, and a high-energy live auction, all while helping fund immediate support for families in need.
Founded by Michelle Moore, Mother’s Grace provides rapid-response assistance to moms and families navigating overwhelming hardship, often caused by serious medical treatment for a parent or child. The organization steps in to cover essential household bills and mobilize more than 50 volunteers to deliver meals, transportation, errands, and hands-on support so families can focus on healing. In 2025 alone, Mother’s Grace assisted more than 300 local families, supporting roughly 70 percent of those who reached out for help.
Grace in Motion was created as a fresh, inclusive way to bring the community together, celebrate longtime supporters, and welcome new donors into the mission. The evening is designed to be joyful, social, and deeply meaningful.
“Grace in Motion is about connection,” Moore said. “We wanted to create a night where people can eat, drink, dance, and enjoy themselves while directly supporting families facing some of the hardest moments of their lives. It’s a joyful way to make a real difference.”
