Hope House helps more than 10,000 of the metro's domestic-violence victims each year, and during the holidays, the nonprofit needs our help more than ever. At the
Full Circle Fundraiser for Hope House, from 6 to 9 p.m. at Boozefish (1511 Westport Road, 816-561-5995), the wine bar is collecting used cell phones, new toys, hygiene products, gift cards and other wish-list items for the shelter. Also, Susan Grace Napier discusses her own story and reads from her book,
Intimate Terrorist. Admission is free. See
hopehouse.net or
