San Diego nonprofit Fresh Start Surgical Gifts will host its 28th Annual Gala âBootleggers Ballâ on Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019 at 6 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency La Jolla at Aventine, 3777 La Jolla Village Drive, San Diego, CA 92122.
The 28th Annual Gala will celebrate Fresh Startâs commitment over the past 28 years in providing free-of-cost reconstructive surgery and transforming the lives of infants, children and teens with physical deformities caused by birth defects, accidents, abuse or disease. Fresh Start also treats a variety of conditions that may cause low self-esteem among children, such as acne and chicken pox scarring, crossed eyes, missing teeth, birthmarks and more. Fresh Start seeks to raise over $200,000 at the event of which 100 percent of proceeds will benefit the Fresh Start Surgical Gifts Medical Program.
âOur all-volunteer team of surgeons and supporters are committed to seeing that every child with a physical deformity is given the opportunity to have a positive self-image,â said Fresh Start CEO Shari Brasher. âThe Gala celebrates the children and families weâve served and the many that are to come.â
The 28th Annual Gala will feature a jazzy evening, including a cocktail reception, a live/silent auction, dinner, live music by The Heroes and casino table games. Tickets can be purchased here.
