Community Solutions presents the Healing Hearts Gala

After a nearly two-year fundraiser event hiatus , Community Solutions proudly presents their 2022 reimagined annual fundraiser , the Healing Hearts Gala . The event will take place at the Lodge on the Hill , 2765 Hecker Pass Hwy in Gilroy on Saturday March 19 .

Based on the organization ' s past events , the Healing Hearts Gala will undoubtedly be an elegant affair that is both fun and inspiring . Guests will enjoy a champagne reception , buffet dinner with hosted wine , live and silent auctions , and engaging games and more .
The Healing Hearts Gala represents a new approach to annual fundraising for Gilroy-based Community Solutions . The event will combine elements of past events held at different times during previous years to create a spectacular single-night event . One element sure to be included are the success stories — the struggles and the joys of local families who are fighting to overcome violence , abuse , and mental illness .
For these and many others in the local area , Community Solutions provides life-saving support and resources . Of note is the organization ’ s commitment to those in need in 2020 and 2021 during the height of the pandemic . Under the shroud of uncertainty and shutdowns , Community Solutions was forced to cancel all fundraising events . Yet , despite shrinking budgets and evaporating reserves , they continued to deliver on their mission by providing critical support and resources to their clients and expanded operations to assist those newly affected by the pandemic and economic shutdown .
Let ’ s show our support for this great organization by attending this event . As a community , our attendance and generous support for Community Solutions will be an opportunity to acknowledge the great work they do and provide the support needed to continue the work . Tickets go on sale in early February , and the event is likely to sell out quickly .
