Annual Fundraiser 2007

Celebrate the Latino Community through Food, Music, and Dance!

Thank you to everyone who made it to the event!

The festivities did run a bit late since everyone was having so much fun learning how to Salsa Dance.

Thanks to the attendees, sponsors and silent auction donors and bidders, this event raised over $40,000! We greatly appreciate all the hard work of our board members and the staff who volunteered their time to make the event a smashing success.  We've not yet determined the theme for next year's event, but we'll keep you posted if you sign up to receive updates on the website.

The Chapel of the Chimes was expanded and re-built in 1928 by Julia Morgan - one of the premier architects of the 20th century. Today, it is considered one of the Bay Area’s most beautiful buildings and hosts a variety of musical and artistic performances.

Chapel of the Chimes takes great care in decorating for Dia de los Muertos, a joyful Mexican holiday of remembrance.
