“Gala of Gratitude and Giving”: a Success 

Picture

HHELPP’s first “Gala of Gratitude and Giving” was a heartwarming evening of rekindling relationships and expressing sincere thanks to donors, friends, and volunteers. It was held in Northampton House, American Fork, Utah, a beautiful classic vintage LDS chapel that was converted to an event center many years ago. The gala was also an opportunity to inform the community about IHHELPP’s focus to build a technical school anchored upon LDS values. The event also increased community awareness about IHHELPP’s vision, accomplishments, and future projects. 

The gala showcased Filipino-made crafts, food products, Christmas ornaments, and other articles. All products were sold out. President Rene Doria also presented a year-end update of IHHELPP’s progress as a non-profit organization.

Entertainment included two folk dances from a local group led by Miss Asia
-Utah Thelma Long. Local singer-songwriter Emily Hammon wooed the crowd with her song numbers “Miracles” and
“Impossible Dream”. Attendees described the event as inspiring and eye- opening. IHHELPP aims to make the gala a biannual event .
