NAMI Louisville's Spirit of Peace Awards Dinner

The NAMI Louisville Annual Spirit of Peace Awards Dinner was held on February 24, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Founder’s Union, 450 N Whittington Pkwy. 

NAMI Louisville successfully Bridged the Gap between mental illness and recovery, with an event focused on the betterment of the mental health of our community and and raising awareness of the access issues that prevent so many from receiving the help they need to properly safeguard their mental health. 

The NAMI Louisville Annual Spirit of Peace Awards Dinner serves as one of our larger fundraisers for our organization which brings together our NAMI Louisville Members. Like our Step Forward for Mental Health Walk, we gather each Spring to support Mental Wellness in Kentuckiana. 

This dinner not only honors those working to rid our community of stigma but showcases education and awareness about mental health issues in our community. 

This dinner inspires a heartwarming celebration through guest speakers, a silent auction, music, educational opportunities, and the NAMI Louisville Awards presentation. These awards will be for our members to nominate those making great strides to provide mental wellness to Louisville. These are incredibly deserving individuals who we are glad to honor. 

This year, NAMI Louisville raised nearly $30,000, and 175 attendees joined us to help bring needed services to Kentuckiana. We are incredibly proud of our members and community for helping us set new fundraising and attendance records!    

Thank you to our Sponsors, Guest Speakers, Award Winners, Planning Committee, and staff for your help to make this year's Spirit of Peace Awards Dinner a success!
