Hula with H.E.L.P.
H.E.L.P.'s 2007 Celebrate Summer Event Was A Terrific Success

Hula with H.E.L.P. took place on Friday, July 20, 2007 at the Torrance Memorial Health Conference Center in Torrance. Because of our generous attendees, donors, sponsors and volunteers, the event netted over $100,000. That's more than 16% of our full year expense budget.

On behalf of the thousands of older adults and families who will turn to H.E.L.P. for assistance in the coming year, we thank each of the persons and organizations listed below for helping to make the event so successful:
