Domestic violence is a widespread problem in Georgia and across the country, including in Walton and surrounding counties. One very important resource for this issue locally is Project ReNeWal. This is a domestic violence program serving Walton, Newton, and Rockdale counties that is an invaluable resource for women, and men, caught in what may seem like a helpless situation.
Project ReNeWal officially opened its doors on November 13, 1995, and while it does get a lot of support from the local community, raising funds to support the program is a very necessary function of the organization. In 2019, it found an entertaining, and lucrative, way to raise some of the funds in the inaugural Dancing with the Stars of Project ReNeWal. This was deemed a resounding success and, except for the disruption due to the pandemic, the event has grown since then. The really good news is this event is scheduled to return next Saturday.
Dancing with the Stars of Project ReNeWal 2025 will take place from 7 to 10 p.m. on Saturday, March 8, 2025, at Walnut Grove High School, 4863 Guthrie Cemetery Road, Loganville, GA 30052. It will consist of local dignitaries performing dances that have been choreographed by local dance professionals. The tickets are $30 each and each ticket you purchase counts as 30 votes for your favorite star. The dance teams are from the three counties.
Project ReNeWal relies heavily on funds raised to support families in crisis as a result of domestic violence. Dancing with the Stars offers an entertaining evening to have fun while supporting this invaluable resource. This year there also will be a Silent Auction with items donated by supporters in the community.
