This year, Planned Parenthood Pasadena and San Gabriel Valley celebrates 79 years as a vital part of the local San Gabriel Valley communities with an elegant Farm-to-Table-inspired dinner at a popular Pasadena restaurant.
“We’re here to ensure that nobody gets left behind as the health care framework in our country shifts,” said Sheri Bonner, President and CEO. “We’re grateful for our growing number of supporters who value Planned Parenthood as a trusted place that women and families rely on for the critical services and tools needed to plan a healthy future.”
Community members convene for the Fall Benefit, one of two annual events that celebrate the work of this essential organization. Over 41,000 local residents received high-quality care at Planned Parenthood’s four local health centers and multiple satellite locations this past year. More than 95% of the health care services are preventive, including life-saving cancer screenings, all FDA-approved methods of birth control, annual exams, testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections and much more.
The event will take place on Sunday, September 30th at 5:30pm at a local Pasadena restaurant. For more information or to purchase tickets by phone, please contact Merideth at (626) 794-5737 ext. 102.
