This year, our 2nd Annual Inspire Change Gala will be held under the beautiful dome of The Rotunda in Oakland, California.
The program will include a no-host cocktail and hors d’oeuvres reception during the silent auction.
During dinner we will feature two keynote speakers, Minh Dang, Executive Director of Don't Sell Bodies and Jessica Midkiff recognized by Los Angeles County Probation Department and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors for her work and dedication.
After dinner, we will have a live auction of original survivor artwork and other fabulous items. Following the live auction, we want to see everyone on the dance floor MISSSEY style!
