Peace on the Potomac - Cruise for our Capital Campaign

Sail away with us while we raise funds for the “anchor” to Tri-Valley Haven’s capital campaign! On Saturday, June 30, 2018 from 2PM to 5PM, sail on the beautiful bay, enjoy small bites from Kincaid’s and wine from local Livermore wineries! The Potomac will set sail from 540 Water Street in Oakland, at Jack London Square. Enjoy the musical entertainment of Queen of Hearts Duo while you explore the Historic USS Potomac with docent lead tours of this historic presidential vessel! Donation drawings for fabulous prizes will be available and plenty of photo opportunities! TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE! For more information about this event contact: Brenda Dutton at 925-828-7173.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OUR CAPITAL CAMPAIGN: Tri-Valley Haven has been sheltering and caring for thousands of battered women and their children at Shiloh for too many yrs. Although our first choice would be to end violence, the second choice is to shelter and care for women and their children in the best way possible. Our old shelter is just not a welcoming place any longer. Despite the love and compassion that fills the house, it is a facility in desperate need of replacement. Experts tell us that the best use of funds is to raise the shelter and re-build. This is an exciting and costly vision that we can’t make a reality without your generous help. We have an anchor gift of up to $130,000 that can match your contribution dollar for dollar. Our initial goal is $1.5 million. Join us on our Peace on the Potomac Cruise June 30 as we kick off our campaign.
