SLOAN EVENTS
Lunafest
LunaFest is a celebration of women in film. This program is provided by Clif Bar & Company, makers of the Luna Bar, for non-profit organizations to raise dollars. Sloan House has been the focus of the dollars raised locally for a number of years. The films are by women, about women, and for women, but men like them too.
We look forward to inviting you to next year’s LunaFest and more great films that help us to fund the needs of women at Sloan House.
Capfest
The proceeds raised at CAPfest were used to empower the women who need the services of the Sloan House emergency shelter to rebuild their lives. To read accounts of how the Sloan House benefits these women, visit our Stories page.
Valentine’s Day Brunch
Garden Party
The healing garden donated from the Trione family was completed so we had an open house. Thank you so much Mr. and Mrs.Trione! Bev Yarbrough was acknowleged for her long time support.
We now have a bench and a hanging rock in honor of her in the lovely garden. Her ladies group was there to join her. Past clients of Sloan house spoke about their experiences while living there.
Current clients joined us for the event. Janal Cruz was in attendance as the shelter was named after her grandmother Eddie Mae Sloan. Cheryl Traendly took these wonderful photos. Sloan Angels Linda Gilbert, Kathy Fogleman and Kaye Henzerling provided the food. Oscar Chavez, Molly Ackley Lynea Syberlich and Hazel Whiteoak from Community Action Partnership were also in attendance along with board members Pat Kuta and Karen Erickson.
The afternoon was enjoyed by all as they toured the shelter and read all the letters from the women.
