The 2nd Annual White Dress Party on Feb 16th at Gold Coast Bar is a non-profit charity fundraiser. We encourage everyone to wear white, we sell raffle tickets, there is a bake sale, tasty jello-shots, good music and prizes! This was created as a winter counter-part the wildly popular Red Dress Party, which is the summers biggest daytime party! Come dressed to the nines and lets have some fun! All funds raised go to non-profit charities. This years beneficiary is the Life Group LA.

Join Saddle Up LA

JULY 13, 2019

Another successful year of Saddle Up is in the Books! We are so grateful to so many for coming together and supporting Life Group LA and the wonderful work we do. I am equally honored and grateful to personally have had the support of my friends and family and an off the hook amazing volunteer team who stepped up in lots of new ways this year to make our 14th annual the huge success it was!

It’s simple, HIV is not over yet and together we have ALL helped in a very significant way to support those who are living with HIV and their friends and family’s as well as help those who are HIV negative, to stay negative. I feel confident that in our life time, as we have already seen so much very much progress, that we will get to zero new infections and inevitably find a cure!

If you would like to see some of the fun event day photos check our our Saddle Up LA page at Facebook.

From the bottom of my exhausted loving heart... THANK YOU!

Sincerely,
Sunnie Rose Berger
Executive Director
