Featuring the talents of singer-songwriters Jason O, Stacy Glen Tibbetts, Cole Hons and Paul Barsom, Webster’s Bookstore Café was transformed into a small venue for musical delight last night.

The performance was a benefit for Bridge of Hope Centre County, a local affiliate of Bridge of Hope National and a program designed to end and prevent homelessness for women and children.

“We fight to protect single homeless mothers and their children, or mothers at risk of becoming homeless. We give them support, usually for one to two years. We provide counseling, rental assistance, mentoring groups, but most importantly, we are their friends," said Pam Fuller, chairwoman of the Bridge of Hope Board of Directors, said. 

Some highlights from the show:
