Fundraising Events

Our major 2009 spring fundraiser was a fashion show "Hat's Off to Assistance League", held in the spring to a sellout crowd. Members and guests enjoyed an afternoon of fashion, opportunity prizes, silent and live auctions, and a delicious lunch.  The fall event, A Newport Harbor Sunset Cruise  allowed for more socializing and an opportunity to raise funds for Assistance League programs through a silent and live auction.  Guests were treated to a bon voyage toast, dinner, casino games, and a magnificient view of Newport Harbor.
