Jerusalem House’s 15th annual Halloween Party’s theme “Traveling Through Time” took many guests to the past as some of their favorite historical figures. The fun event is not just for a good time, though; money raised from ticket sales goes directly to assisting Jerusalem House — people living with or affected by HIV/AIDS and in need of shelter. At any given time approximately 250 people, 80 of whom are typically children, rely on Jerusalem House for shelter.
The party is also known for its infamous costume contest and this year judges included E. Vincent Martinez, Jovita Moore of WSB-TV, and Mitchell Anderson, owner of Metro Fresh.
