Heartline Banquet Fundraiser
2026-04-23 17:30 - 20:00 | Warsaw Community Church, 1855 South County Farm Road, Warsaw, IN, 46580, United States
Come join Heartline for an evening of silent auction fun, delicious food, & true community IMPACT.
EVENT DETAILS: Heartline “Wonderfully Made” Banquet & Silent Auction fundraiser, Thursday, April 23rd, 2026, 5:30-8:00pm, Warsaw Community Church
WHAT IS HEARTLINE & WHO DOES IT SERVE? Heartline exists so that every heartbeat has a chance to be cherished and every family has a chance to thrive. 85% of Heartline clients qualify as low-income; 25% are Spanish-speaking; 70% fall into the “abortion risk” category; and 100% could use some genuine support & prayer as they walk through what is often the most challenging moment of their lives up to this point.
Heartline’s medical services (pregnancy tests & ultrasound scans) fill a maternal health gap by connecting clients who tend to be reticent to pursue medical services with prenatal care & ongoing support services. And Heartline’s support services walk alongside families from the first pregnancy test all the way through the youngest child’s 5th birthday.
WHY IS THE FUNDRAISER NEEDED? All Heartline services are offered to the community free of charge, which means we have to raise EVERY DOLLAR of our budget through fundraisers & grants. Heartline counts on the annual banquet fundraiser to fund 25% of our annual budget – a goal that can only be achieved with YOUR help!
WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM THE BANQUET? On banquet night, you’ll have a chance to bid on a fun array of silent auction items, share a meal with others who share your passion to make a difference, and hear some of the client stories that demonstrate the true impact your support of Heartline makes.
We’ll also share some pretty cool ministry updates, present our annual Heart of Heartline award to a deserving honoree, and hear real Heartline clients share from their hearts. And our speaker, Kelly Lester, will share her testimony – a powerful story which is sure to stay with you long after the event has ended.
THINKING ABOUT GETTING TICKETS? PLEASE CONSIDER HOSTING A TABLE! Not only does purchasing a table (8 seats) mean a significant discount ($30 savings vs. individual tickets), but what event isn’t MORE FUN when it’s spent with your besties??
BUT WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?? Wear whatever you are comfortable in – this is not a fancy event. We just want to see you there!

There will be prizes awarded for most stalls spotted, and for most points earned! To learn more, contact the library and ask for Amanda, or visit www.stallcatchers.com to learn more and to get started!
This program is for ages 18 and over, but kids and grandkids ages 13 and over might enjoy this activity, too! Please register so we know how many participants to plan for. Register by calling the library at 574-834-7122.
