Sunday, July 30, 2006, 7:30pm
The Masonic Auditorium

"Help is on the Way" is an elegant evening of fun designed to raise funds
for Bay Area AIDS service provider agencies.

This year, "Help is on the Way XII" will be moving from the 1,000 seat Palace of Fine Arts Theatre to the beautiful 3,000 seat Masonic Auditorium atop San Franciso's famed Nob Hill. "Help is on the Way" is always a sell-out event and this move will enable to us to accommodate a much larger audience and thereby raise more money to support the beneficiaries of this event. Ten agencies have selected as beneficiaies of this event, five designated as primary beneficiaries who will receive larger grants from the proceeds of the gala (but also share a larger part in the production responsibilities, and five others who will receive smaller grants but share smaller responsibilities.

If you are interested in supporting this event as
a corporate sponsor,
gala reception sponsor,
silent auction donor
or gala volunteer,
please give us a call at 415.546.REAF
or email us at info@richmondermet.org.
