Mardi Gras Gala
Initiated as a celebration for Share’s first 25 years of service to the community, the Mardi Gras Gala & Casino Night is a Black Tie optional fundraising event to support Share’s programs and services. The event features a Cajun-style dinner, casino-style gambling and a silent and live auction. The 2011 event will be held on Saturday, February 19.
The 200 Gala attendees raised $32,000+ alone during the Special Appeal—matching a $10,000 gift from an anonymous donor—to help those impacted by hunger and homelessness in Clark County.
Share would like to extend a special thanks to the 2010 Gala Committee members, including Kathi Rota, Committee Chair; Vickie Erickson, Silent Auction Chair and Keela Stumpf, Decorations Chair. Also a special thanks to Debbi Neff for help with auction baskets, All Seasons Plants and Rod & Kathy Hatch for silent auction donations—their dedication and hard work was, as always, a key element to the success of this event.
