Sherwood Cares Gala 2024

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2024

What an enchanting evening enjoyed by 338 guests! 
 
Thanks to the Sherwood and local community, plus our Sponsors,  Sherwood Cares netted more than $1.1 million that will go directly to local  nonprofits aligning with our mission.
 
As the evening unfolded, so did the magical delights:
  •  Ice-cold champagne offered upon entry
  •  Authentic Vogue ‘glass’ Photo box
  • Dazzling Aerial Performers
  • Talented Stilt Walkers providing memorable photo ops
  • Exquisite Gourmet Cuisine 
  • Everyone’s favorite Live Band at the Salon de Rêve after party where the dance floor kept expanding….
Actor/Comedian John O’Hurley reigned as the emcee and did not disappoint!
 
Guest speaker Eddie Melendez movingly recounted his journey from foster homes to enrolling at USC Film School this fall  – highlighting the help he received from Sherwood Cares mentors and some local nonprofits.
 
The Auction items were above and beyond with spirited bidding orchestrated by our entertaining auctioneer.
 
Thank you to the very professional Sherwood Staff who made this night go unbelievably smoothly.
