The Saint Francis Foundation Associates Announce 8th Annual White Caps & Night Caps Event
Fundraiser for Tenderloin Health Improvement Partnership Moves To Bently Reserve
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Saint Francis Foundation Associates, a group of young professionals who give back to the community by supporting and enhancing the work of San Francisco's own Saint Francis Memorial Hospital, today announced the availability of tickets and premier event sponsors for the 8th Annual White Caps & Night Caps event.
The Associates' signature cocktail party will be held on Saturday, October 22, 2016 starting at 7:30 pm for a special pre-event wine tasting experience hosted by Zinfandel Advocates and Partners (ZAP). Doors open at 8:30 pm for the nautical cocktail party and main event: The 8th Annual White Caps & Night Caps.
Like last year's successful fundraiser, all proceeds raised will benefit the Tenderloin Health Improvement Partnership (TLHIP), a multi-sector collective partnership that is committed to improving community health in the Tenderloin—one of San Francisco's most densely populated and neediest neighborhoods.
"White Caps & Night Caps isn't your typical San Francisco charity event. It's a truly special event that attracts all ages and demographics. Whether you are looking to come in cocktail attire, or dressed like a sailor, the event's fun-loving atmosphere is only outdone by the amazing cause we are raising money for, the Tenderloin Health Improvement Partnership," said Daniella Vallurupalli, Board Chair, The Saint Francis Foundation Associates. "This year's event is shaping up to be another record-breaking year, and it wouldn't be possible without our generous sponsors, who are helping to bring us closer to our annual fundraising goal of raising $100,000 for 2016."
Held at the opulent Bently Reserve in downtown San Francisco, White Caps & Night Caps is expected to attract 350 attendees from all over the San Francisco Bay Area. As The Associates' biggest fundraising event of the year, White Caps & Night Caps will feature DJ Jason Everett, silent auctions, raffles, wine pouring and tasting stations, open bars, a photo booth, and other fun entertainment. New this year, White Caps & Night Caps will kick off with an exclusive pre-event, the Captain's Circle Wine Tasting Experience hosted by ZAP, and will then open the doors to the evening's main event, White Caps & Night Caps.
