It is with a heavy heart that we will be canceling the 6th annual Purse Party fundraiser for 2021. This fun event will be back in May 2022!

It is very important that we keep our senior population, community, and staff healthy and safe. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended canceling or postponing in-person events. Because of the changing environment surrounding the pandemic, we’re unable to reschedule to a later date.

The Purse Party fundraiser benefits Camp Courage for children ages 6-19 who have experienced a death.  Over the past five years this event has raised over $7,000 to support this program of The Bob & Merle Scolnik Healing Center of Harbor Hospice.

Any purse or handbag donated will be held until the next year. If you would like to support Camp Courage please visit here to make an online tax-deductible donation.

Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to seeing you at our future events!
