9th ANNUAL In Concert with Caminar Our annual celebration of the therapeutic power of the arts
October 19, 2019 | SFJAZZ Center
Underwriter Invitation INTRODUCTION
Founded in 1964, Caminar is a leading provider of community behavioral health services in the San Francisco Bay Area. Each year, more than 20,000 youth, adults, and older adults access prevention, treatment, and recovery services that promote behavioral health and well-being.
Caminar is privileged to play an integral role in making our communities places of hope and opportunity for those who face behavioral health challenges. Thanks to the philanthropic support of local businesses, foundations, and families, neighbors faced with crises and complicated chronic illnesses receive the compassionate, evidence-based treatment and recovery services they need to move toward resilience, wellness, and independence.
At the same time, through our prevention and early intervention programs, we are working to intervene in dynamics that lead to behavioral health challenges.
In Concert with Caminar is our annual celebration of the therapeutic power of the arts. The gala features top musical talent at a premier venue, gourmet food, and a vibrant audience.
The audience of 425 guests includes business leaders, philanthropists, health care providers and administrators, elected officials, and other community leaders who share a commitment to behavioral health and a love of music. Guests attend from throughout the Bay Area and live primarily in San Francisco, on the Peninsula (particularly Atherton and Hillsborough), and in northern Santa Clara County (Palo Alto, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills).
Event proceeds strengthen and expand our safety net of mental health, addiction recovery, and housing and other critical supportive services for the most vulnerable people in our communities.

Sheléa Singer, Songwriter, and Protégé of Quincy Jones Performing Natural Woman: A Night of Soul from Aretha to Adele
With a voice that stirs the soul and hands that effortlessly glide over the keys, Sheléa represents a return to true artistry that has garnered much attention and adoration from legends throughout the music industry. Her sultry sound is an exciting oasis in an age of auto-tune. Blending traditional pop, jazz, R&B, and soul, Sheléa brings a contemporary edge to classics and a classic touch to contemporary pop standards.
In March 2019, Sheléa starred on PBS, joined by special guests David Foster and Greg Phillinganes, in the concert special QUINCY JONES PRESENTS: SHELÉA, as well as released her much- anticipated third album Pretty World: Through the Eyes of Alan and Marilyn Bergman (Breath of Life Records/Universal).
Sheléa will also star in the upcoming music biopic You Brought the Sunshine: The Story of The Clark Sisters, executive produced by Queen Latifah, Missy Elliot, and Mary J. Blige.
