3rd Annual "There's No Place Like Home" Gala
September 20, 2008
Last Year's Gala
  
We are excited to announce that on September 29, 2007 Families Forward celebrated its 22 years of service at the
2nd Annual "There Is No Place Like Home" Gala. This year, Families Forward honored Standard Pacific
Homes-Orange County Division for their invaluable support and commitment to our organization and the local community.
It was a record-breaking year! We had 360 guests at the fabulous Fairmont Newport Beach Hotel and those guests
raised a net income of more than $280,000 to help families with children regain self sufficiency.
Thank you!

AND THE LUCKY WINNER OF THE TOYOTA 2008 PRIUS IS...
Donna B., a CPA from Anaheim, CA and an avid Hugh Hewitt listener!
Donna's lucky number was drawn in front of a crowd of 360 people attending the 2nd annual “There Is No Place Like Home” gala in the presence of the Families Forward Board of Directors, the Executive Director, Margie Wakeham and the Chief Financial Officer, Dianne Newman. Thank you to Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A., Inc. for the generous donation. Thank you to Hugh Hewitt for announcing the opportunity drawing on the air and thank you to Churm Media and OC Metro for running Prius ads! Nearly $50,000 was raised through Prius opportunity ticket sales alone—thank you to everyone who contributed.
CONGRATULATIONS, DONNA!
