Join us for our biggest fundraiser of the year — Harvest of Hope

The 18th Annual Harvest of Hope Gala

“Light in the Valley”

Saturday, October 4, 2025

6pm at the Redding Civic Auditorium

You’re invited to the 18th Annual Harvest of Hope gala—an evening of inspiration, celebration, and impact.

This year’s theme, Light in the Valley, reflects the heart of our mission: meeting people in their lowest moments with compassion and tangible hope.

Donald Whitehead Jr. is our keynote speaker. A national advocate and Executive Director of the National Coalition for the Homeless, Donald brings over 25 years of experience in long-term recovery, has advised five U.S. Presidents, testified before congress, and is a leading voice on housing and public policy. His powerful journey from addiction and homelessness to national leadership will encourage and inspire you.

The evening includes live music, transformational stories, a delicious dinner, and of course my annual State of the Mission. You’ll also hear about our latest projects serving those in deepest need across our community. Would you consider joining me as a sponsor and inviting like-minded friends to join you? This is a great opportunity to introduce the Mission to friends and colleagues. Your support fuels life-changing work for our neighbors experiencing crisis.

Sponsors are invited to an exclusive VIP reception with Donald Whitehead Jr. before the event—a special chance for conversation and connection.
