Community Change Makers Celebration 2025: A Night of Impact, Community, and Generosity 

This year’s Community Change Makers Celebration was an unforgettable evening filled with connection, purpose, and remarkable generosity. Hosted at The Winemakers Reserve, our community came together to support Bridgeways’ mission of helping individuals overcome homelessness and mental health challenges.  

Silent Auction: Friendly Competition for a Cause 

Our silent auction opened online ahead of the event and featured an incredible array of experiences, local goods, escapes, and specialty baskets. Guests eagerly bid throughout the evening, sparking friendly competition as they vied for their favorite items. 

Every bid helped fuel programs that provide stability, housing support, and mental wellness services to those who need them most. 

Dessert Dash: Sweet Treats, Sweeter Generosity 

The Dessert Dash once again delivered one of the most joyful and energetic moments of the night. Tables pooled their pledges—strategizing, laughing, and building excitement—before racing to choose their favorite dessert from a stunning table of cakes, pies, and pastries donated by local bakeries. 

It was a highlight that blended fun and generosity in the sweetest way. 

Live Auction: Big Bids, Big Hearts 

Our live auction brought incredible energy into the room. With exclusive experiences, unique local packages, and highly sought-after items, bidders showed tremendous enthusiasm and heart; some items even sold twice due to high demand, doubling their impact. 

A Night Made Possible by You 

To every attendee, bidder, donor, volunteer, and supporter: thank you. Your commitment to community and compassion directly strengthens our ability to uplift individuals on their path toward stability, health, and hope.
