Our annual gala is a special celebration of our CEO, Alexandra Morgan, who will retire at the end of this year. The party will feature a festive cocktail reception, gourmet dinner with amazing wines, a finely curated live auction, plus live music by Beatles tribute band The Sun Kings, and so much more. Get dressed up in your favorite \u201960s fashion and support Family House.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Since 1981, so much has changed for Family House. What started as ten rooms on Irving Street, run entirely by volunteers with an annual operating budget of under $200,000 has grown into a five-story, 80-bedroom facility in Mission Bay that can house more than 250 people per night. Now with a staff of more than 25 employees, Family House has been a haven for more than 60,000 families while their child is undergoing treatment for cancer or another life-threatening illness.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This year\u2019s theme, All You Need is Love, is a phrase that\u2019s integral to our mission. All event proceeds will fund direct services provided to our families, including temporary housing, meals and amenities for families with a child being treated for cancer or other life-threatening illnesses. All services are offered 100% free of charge for more than 4,000 kids and family members each year, thanks to generous donor support.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Please join us to thank Alexandra for more than 22 years of service to our mission.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For more information, contact Camilla Burraston.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thank You to Our Sponsors<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diamond<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Kalmanovitz Charitable Foundation<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Amazon<br>Collette O\u2019Riordan and John Kugler<br>Erica and Jeff Lawson<br>Ted Slavin<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Silver<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson Commercial Flooring<br>Bay City Mechanical<br>BOK Modern, LLC<br>Condon-Johnson &amp; Associates<br>Country Builders Construction<br>Day One Biopharmaceuticals<br>Egan Plumbing<br>H&amp;M Fire Protection<br>House Co.
