Celebrated December 12 at Point Richmond’s
First United Methodist Church
Saffron Strand’s Winter Gala and Silent Auction featured scrumptious hors d’oeuvres along with live jazz by the Saffron Strand All Stars and fine art from local artists, including Solangue Patiño Patroni.


The Silent Auction included valuable gift packages from local businesses and unique art and craft work. It was a wonderful way to find special holiday presents.
All proceeds from the Holiday Gala and Silent Auction support Saffron Strand programming — our all-volunteer, trauma-informed, professional work to get the homeless and those at risk of homelessness off the streets and back into the workforce for the long term.
Please join us in offering very special thanks to Pastor Dan Damon and the congregation of the First United Methodist Church for their wonderful generosity in allowing Saffron Strand to use their space for our special event.
Thank you, Saffron Strand Volunteer David Moore, for designing our beautiful flyer!
