THE AUCTION AND CHARITY LUNCHEON

In recognition of the vital work Safe Haven Community delivers, our community united to contribute an impressive prize pool of auction items and experiences. The online auction culminated in a Charity Luncheon held in the Grand Room of The Calile Hotel on Friday May 7 2021. Julia Zemiro hosted the day, and facilitated a conversation between The Hon Shannon Fentiman MP, Senator Larissa Waters and ABC Journalist Nour Haydar. Thanks to our sponsors, guests, and our broad community, a total of $169,000 was raised in direct support of Safe Haven Community.
