In loving memory of Evelyn Dunlap, whose kindness, generosity, and belief in the limitless potential of others continue to inspire our mission each day.
“To whom much is given, much is required.” — Luke 12:48
We warmly invite you to an evening beneath the stars — in celebration of the students her Foundation serves, and the doors that generosity holds open. Your presence is the truest gift we could ask for.

Whom We Lift This Year
This year’s Soirée honors three organizations whose work turns Evelyn’s belief into the everyday business of changing lives.
-
Second Harvest Food Bank
Nourishing neighbors and answering hunger across our community — one table at a time.
-
Major Change Initiative
Opening doors to education and opportunity for students the world too often overlooks.

Nation Infiniti Africa
Carrying clean water and learning to communities an ocean away.
