Dear Friends of Salem,
We are hosting our Annual Gala & Auction, Back to the Farm, at the Doubletree in Ontario, CA, on September 27, 2025. I invite you to join us on this special evening as we advance our mission to empower people with disabilities!
For 64 years, Salem has been providing an environment of empowerment and inclusion for individuals with a wide range of disabilities from autism and cerebral palsy to epilepsy and Down syndrome. We are raising funds for Salem Christian Homes because of the great impact it is having in the lives of developmentally disabled adults. With a funding gap of over $1 million from the state, the residents who live at Salem depend on our gala to support their needs.
Our event is expected to draw 400 supporters and participating businesses like yours will be prominently featured at our event. Can you help us by donating a product, service, or gift card from your business for our gala’s Silent or Live Auction so that we can maximize our care and training program and impact more people with developmental disabilities? All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax-deductible. Your donation can be something as simple as a gift certificate to your business or an invitation to tour your establishment, getaway trips, or tickets to sporting/entertainment events that your business has access to.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any immediate questions or concerns. The gala is a key in our fundraising efforts and your consideration regarding this request is greatly appreciated!
Blessings,
Joanne Underwood, Auction Committee
