Our Preserve Luncheon returns Thursday, September 17 with an engaging presentation by Dr. Fred Karnas, PhD, as we explore what it means to grow old without a place to call home. His compassion and deep understanding of our community’s most vulnerable populations have led him to national leadership roles with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Office of HIV/AIDS Housing, and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness addressing the intersection of housing, health, and human services. We are excited for him to share his vision for creating lasting change. Because every senior deserves the opportunity to age with dignity.

This is Restoration Housing's main fundraiser of the year, providing necessary financial support for our mission. Tickets are $70 with a $10 early bird discount through August 19.
