2015 ‘Tis the Season to Give Fundraiser November 29

It’s our third annual ‘Tis the Season to Give Fundraiser!

This year’s event will be held on Sunday, November 29 at the Davis Odd Fellows Hall (415 2nd Street) in Downtown Davis. Doors open at 3 PM and bidding on silent auction items (as well as a lively chance raffle spread) lasts for two and a half hours before the event ends at 6 PM. Servers will whisk through the hall, delighting all comers with small plates and delectable appetizers (save room for dessert!).

Tickets ($30) can be purchased online with the PayPal button here, by mailing a check to P.O. Box 622, Davis, CA 95617, or by calling the business office at 530-756-7542.

Attendees will have the opportunity to snag amazing silent auction items from local businesses, such as tickets to the B Street Theatre, Mondavi Center and Sacramento French Film Festival, Ross and Costco gift cards, passes to Explorit and Fairytale Town, gift certificates to Bistro 33, Paragary’s and Scott’s Seafood on the River, Cork It Again wine, wine tasting tours at Carvalho Family Wines and Berryessa Gap Vineyard, IMAX theatre, Davis Varsity Theatre and Crest Theatre movies, spa and massage packages, gorgeous gift baskets and more! Additionally, attendees will be able to bid on fun items a little farther away, such as Disneyland Parkhopper tickets, the California Academy of Sciences, the Bay Area Discovery Museum, Sugar Bowl Ski Resort, Sonoma Raceway, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, Black Oak Casino, the San Francisco Symphony, and other exciting travel experiences.

Skip the Black Friday crowds! Support local businesses (and a worthy non-profit) at Cyber Monday prices!

Past groups have remarked that it was comforting to be around those who have experienced a similar loss and others have said that it was good for them to be able to talk to people who understand the complex grieving process around a loss to suicide.

Groups are usually 6 – 8 people in size and though these dates are set, they may be moved or postponed if there are not enough attendees to run the group. These groups are facilitated by an experienced, licensed clinician.

Please feel free to contact us for more information.
