Dear Gala guests and donors---

 

You drank the Bpeacetinis, you bid on auction items with your phones, you saw the video.

Auctioneer Alan Kalter talks with Fast Runner Andrea Quintanilla.
You also met Salvadoran Fast Runner Andrea Quintanilla of Sabor Amigo and enjoyed her products in your gift bags.  Share

the video of Andrea and other Bpeace Fast Runners talking about the positive effects their businesses have on their communities.

 

So now it's time for us to say THANK YOU for making our mission possible!  We are proud to report that we exceeded our Gala fundraising goal--due in no small part to your enthusiastic support of our programs.   If you missed out on contributing, you can still  donate .
