Santa Barbara, CA, July 30, 2021 – When the CALM Auxiliary’s fundraising efforts were faced with trying to think outside the box at a time when everyone was being asked to stay in their box, they didn’t miss a beat. Without the possibility of galas, antique shows, or celebrity author luncheons, the CALM Auxiliary pulled off their new possible.
In March, Auxiliary members (and avid golfers), Edie Zelazny and Roberta Collier, along with their husbands Rick and Matt, decided since the pandemic was driving everyone outside for activity, why not put on a golf tournament to raise money for CALM? The turnout was great, with Sheri Dean and Christopher Odell being crowned the winners.
April was a busy month for the 50-year-old CALM Auxiliary as well. Many Auxiliary members participated in Santa Maria’s CALM Ladies Get Loud event determined the pandemic wasn’t going to silence this group. Utilizing ZOOM, participants could virtually fundraise, while wining, dining – and having fun in their living rooms.
