The 6th Annual Spring Out of Homelessness Gala was held last Friday, May 13th at Heritage Todd Creek Golf Club in Thornton. The event was a huge success and raised over $43,000. The evening included live entertainment, drinks, dinner, and both silent & live auctions.
           
Almost Home was gifted wonderful items to auction off, such as an autographed Peyton Manning football donated by United Power,  two round-trip airline tickets from Southwest Airlines, an interior and exterior car detail from Johnson Auto Plaza, and a beautiful print canvas donated by local Brighton Police Officer/Custom Photographer, John Grace.  The silent & live auctions raised over $21,000, and were enjoyed by guests of the event.
 
The event’s guest speaker was Sandra Vilander, a former client of Almost Home who just in the past several weeks was able to find a place of her own to call home thanks to the assistance of Almost Home, Inc.  A memorable moment of the evening was when Laura Whitmore was the high bidder on a quilt during the live auction and presented the quilt to Sandra Vilander’s daughter, Koral as a gift.
