The luncheon begins at 11:30 a.m. with the silent handbag auction. Tickets are $45.

Sea Mar Visions is a local female residential treatment center for chemical dependency. Currently, 23 girls ages 13-17, are enrolled in the program. The PAD Project includes renovations of the Northwest Youth Services’ facilities and will create safe housing and drop-in services for homeless and at-risk youth in Whatcom County. Women Sharing Hope, a volunteer organization, has given approximately $400,000 to local charities since its founding. For more information call Cindy Geri at 360-303-9890.
