Thank you to all of the attendees that made our 2nd Annual Beacon of Hope event a huge success. This year's event was held at the Crest Theater and 600 attendees celebrated Cottage Housing and honored Tom Gagen, CEO of Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento, and his work on behalf of the cities homeless. A variety of vendors provided great food and drink for the evening, including Mulvaney's, Aioli, Tapa the World and drink from Java City and Naked Coffee to name just a few. Those in attendance got to also experience a great program with inspirational words from Cottage Housing participants Elizabeth Nichols, Andrea Nelson, Isaac Taylor and Kathleen (Kat) Thurston and entertainment from guitarist George Sheldon, poet Terry Moore, drum group Taiko Dan, choral group The Village Voices Choir, dance group CORE Dance Collective, and singer Meghan Gibbons.
The Beacon of Hope event raised $85,000 for CHI's programs.
