Founder's Gala 2024 - Shared Hope International

Twenty. Five. Years.

As we celebrate 25 years in the fight to end sex trafficking, we reflect on the stories of hope you have helped write. We are thrilled to have you join us for a night filled with inspiration, reflection, and gratitude. From Nepal to the United States, your unwavering commitment has brought light to the darkness, restored hope to the hopeless, and ensured justice for the exploited. Now, you will get to meet the remarkable individuals whose lives you have touched and hear firsthand the stories of hope that you have helped write.

The reception will be held from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM. Join us for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, and enjoy the chance to talk with staff about the incredible work they are doing. Chat with our community partners about their work and immerse yourself in Shared Hope’s history.

During the reception, there will also be a silent auction. Be sure to arrive early for your chance to win incredible prizes, such as a 4-night stay in Cannon Beach or a private wine tasting. Bidding begins at 5:00 PM and ends at 6:30 PM.

The program and dinner will begin promptly at 6:30 PM. Be sure to arrive early to find your seat.

After the program, we invite guests to join us on the dance floor to end our night of celebration with live music from Nehemiah Brown.
