"NATIONWIDE TRAINING" RAFFLE: Will be OPEN in March 1st, 2019! Last year we reached out to friends and top trainers in the firearms/self defense industry from all across the nation and asked if they would donate "a spot" in their classes for us to RAFFLE OFF for the sole purpose of proceeds benefiting the event and Racheal's Rest. Guess what, everyone JUMPED at the chance to support both The Mingle and Racheal's Rest! The Mingle 2018 raised $5725!!!

They exist to help women and children who experienced sexual abuse or acts of violence regain their balance in life.
