| Background: | The first Hearts with Hope gala was held on February 14, 1988 when PADV was still the Council on Battered Women.

Hearts with Hope is the primary fundraiser & stewardship event for PADV. |

| Format: | Cocktail hour/silent auction; dinner/live auction; entertainment; black-tie. |
| Hope Award: | In 2001, the Hope Award was added to the gala program to recognize and honor the outstanding efforts of an individual in the metro Atlanta area who has made a significant contribution toward supporting battered women in their efforts to live violence free.
The first award was presented to Susan May, PADV founder (then known as Council on Battered Women). Other past recipients include Pat King, Dr. Sheryl Heron, Senator David Adelman, and Attorney General Thurbert Baker. The 2008 Hope Award Honoree is Alge Crumpler of the Atlanta Falcons. |
