Recap: Changing Lives 2023

This year’s Changing Lives event was phenomenal!

 

On Thursday, October 12, we held our once-a-year fundraising event, Changing Lives, in the beautiful Farallon Room at Skyline College. Guests enjoyed delicious food and drinks as they listened to live music by DJ Goyo and Elaine Ryan and watched the sunset over the ocean. Then, we all gathered to watch the Main Show, which featured stories of empowerment, inspiration, and strengthening community. 

 

We’d also like to share a special welcome to our new StarVista Visionaries! A community of donors, who pledge to support StarVista with a donation of $1000 or more a year, for 5 years. We are grateful that over 40 donors have been become Visionary donors since we started the program in 2021.

 

Thank you for your pledge and for helping individuals of all ages navigate life’s challenges.
