Mother’s Grace will host Grace in Motion, a new signature fundraising event designed to support Arizona mothers and families facing acute crisis. The event is scheduled for Thursday, February 26, 2026, from 6 to 10 p.m. inside a private airplane hangar at the Scottsdale Airpark. Attendees will enjoy food and drinks, live music, dancing, and a high-energy live auction—all in support of immediate assistance for families in need.

Founded by Michelle Moore, Mother’s Grace provides rapid-response support to mothers and families navigating overwhelming hardship, often due to serious medical treatment for a parent or child. The organization covers essential household expenses and mobilizes over 50 volunteers to deliver meals, transportation, errands, and hands-on support, allowing families to focus on healing. In 2025, Mother’s Grace assisted more than 300 local families, supporting approximately 70 percent of those who requested help.

Grace in Motion was developed as an inclusive community event to celebrate long-time supporters and welcome new donors. The evening is designed to be joyful, social, and impactful.

“Grace in Motion is about connection,” said Moore. “The vision was to create a night where guests can eat, drink, dance, and enjoy themselves while directly supporting families facing some of the hardest moments of their lives. It is a joyful way to make a tangible difference.”
