The event will feature live jazz by Modell, Soderstrom & James, heavy appetizers and dessert, a silent auction and a raffle. Festive, cocktail attire is encouraged.

This is the shelter’s first major fundraiser in four years.

The shelter provides adults experiencing homelessness with meals and warm beds from Nov. 15 – March 31, plus counseling and housing placement services designed to end the cycle of homelessness.
