Leilani Farm Sanctuary’s First Annual “Community of Compassion” Fundraiser
We all had an enjoyable time at our first gala, held at the beautiful Maui Country Club. Elegant jazz was provided by Toby Couture’s trio. Guests mingled before dinner, while sipping wine and nibbling delicious vegan cuisine prepared by chefs Angel Green and Shaun Christenson. A fabulous silent auction featured items ranging from antique jewelry to original fine art to resort vacations. Images of rescued animals were projected on a big screen throughout the evening. Barry Sultanoff, co-director of Leilani Farm Sanctuary, performed a Hawaiian chant and presented flower leis to founder Laurelee Blanchard and Vice President Melody Hofmann. Laurelee then spoke to the audience about our mission of animal rescue and humane education. A surprise screening of Leilani Farm Sanctuary’s movie, produced by Stars and Cinema, preceded the awards ceremony. Awards of appreciation for dedicated service to Leilani Farm Sanctuary were presented to outstanding volunteers Andre Deslauriers, Noriko Hoge, Kelly Ray Mulholland and Melinda Walker.
