THE JOURNEY HOME
December 8, 2011

| We couldn't plan this kind of segue between stories if we tried. Here'sMorgan Gilligan (who just joined Stewart Title Mid-Atlantic business development VP this week), Jewel, and Jennifer Gilligan. Morgan and Sandy Hillman Communications' Allison Hillman Buchalter co-chaired the recent Evening of Unexpected Delights to benefit The Journey Home, a City plan to eradicate homelessness. Morgan tells us the event raised $620k, and $400k went straight to The Journey Home to support children and employment programming. |

| Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake (with former Ravens offensive tackle Johnathan Ogden and the mayor's husband Kent Blake) is continuing and amending the program, originated under Mayor Sheila Dixon. Jewel's performance and Jonathan's guest bartending were among the "surprises" alluded to in the event's name. |
 |
| Other surprises: the Charm City Roller Girls, the recently resurrected Paul Laurence Dunbar High School marching band, and a house given to a homeless family. |
