Fundraising gala, Sept. 18

Friendship Shelter Celebrates 20 Years of Helping Homeless

The Friendship Shelter kicks of their fundraising season on Sept. 18 with their 20th anniversary celebration. Hosted by the performance space Seven-Degrees, the party will feature an auction of fine art based on the theme of "home," elegant food, and music and dancing compliments of Blues Offenders.

Event chair Jill Edwards and auction chair Kathleen Abel promise a great good time to all who take advantage of this opportunity to support nearly 200 homeless adults from Orange County who are working to rebuild their lives.

Ron and Santina Davies are the hosting sponsor, but other sponsorships are still available. Invitations have been mailed, but e-invites are also available at www.friendshipshelter.org. For more information, contact Randy or Taylor at 494-6928 or tmathieson@friendshipshelter. org.
