Lighting the Way

LIGHTING THE WAY RAISES $460,000 FOR SAFETY NET CARE IN THE GREATER SACRAMENTO REGION

Thanks to the generous sponsors, donors, guests, and volunteers who joined us on the outdoor patio of Cafeteria 15L on the evening of Wednesday, May 25th to raise awareness and funds for a group of clinics and organizations that  provide over one million patient care visits per year for our neighbors who are medically uninsured or underinsured.  Our recipient organizations this year are the Student Run Free Clinics associated with the UC Davis School of Medicine, CommuniCare Health Centers, Loaves & Fishes, SPIRIT (a program of the Sierra Sacramento Valley Medical Society), WellSpace Health, HALO Health & Life Organization, Peach Tree Health, and Elica Health Centers.

Our guests enjoyed wine donated by Heringer Estates, Mark Ellis of the Astoria Wine Group, Yorba Wines, and Andy Walter (Deux Allees).

Music was performed by Dr. Dave Cosca.
