Annual Dinner FAQ
The 2025 Annual Dinner Celebration
is Thursday, May 1,
from 6-8 pm at the Vibrant Arena.
Doors open at 5:30 pm.
How much does it cost?
There is no cost to host a table and the event is free to attend. There will be an opportunity to support One Eighty but no pressure to give!
What is the event like?
There will be a free dinner, videos, testimonies and stories of hope and encouragement about what God is doing at One Eighty and in our community. This is the most-attended Christian support event in the QC - you will be surrounded by other faithful champions of restoration and enjoy fellowshipping with them. Get a sense of what to expect from our 2024 Annual Dinner Fundraiser recap video.
How many people should I invite?
A table seats 10 people. You are welcome to invite as many or as few people as you want. If you have less than 10 people, you may be seated with other guests. If you have more than 10 people you will have more than 1 table but they will be next to each other.
What do I have to do as a table host the night of the event?
The table host is really what makes our event so successful. Your personal invite is what gets people there. The night of the event you will greet your guests, make sure they feel welcome and during the giving portion of the evening, you will hand out and collect an info card/envelope. It’s very simple!
Who should I invite?
Friends, relatives, neighbors, coworkers. They could be people who know about One Eighty or people who have never heard of One Eighty. Ideally, you will help us expand our network of people passionate about our mission by inviting a few NEW people who would enjoy hearing stories of life change and restoration. Your advocacy on our behalf is a small way you can make a BIG IMPACT in the lives of those who are ready to overcome crisis, poverty and addiction.
Are kids able to attend?
Due to the nature of the testimonies shared and limited space, we ask that children younger than 13 not attend.
When do I have to know who my guests are?
We won’t need a final number for your table until mid April. We will follow up with you by email to get your totals. Please make sure we have your email address.
What if I say yes but I can’t fill a table?
That’s no problem! Whether you bring 2 people or 22, we are grateful that you are joining us. We will just seat your group with another group that isn’t full.

About One Eighty:
One Eighty is a Christian nonprofit recovery family located in Davenport, Iowa, providing a 14-month structured residential program for people facing crisis, poverty and addiction. We specifically serve men and women who are seeking victory over substance use disorder and have often experienced homelessness, incarceration, domestic violence or abusive relationships, co-dependency, childhood trauma, criminal activity, poverty, mental illness and a host of other co-occurring factors that have held them back from healthy relationships, consistent work, and contributing to society. We also work with youth to address the trauma, isolation and negative influences that lead kids into destructive lifestyles and introduce them to the hope of Jesus.
More than treatment, rehab or transitional living - One Eighty is helping people discover the FREEDOM to THRIVE as we journey with people ready to build a sober life they WANT to live for God's glory - a life free of substances and full of love, humility and service. Our services are free, fully supported by the many churches, individuals, businesses and community champions who believe every single person displays the image of God and is here for a purpose - and no one is ever too far gone for redemption and restoration.
