Community Medical Centers has announced plans to host a Gala Fundraiser at the DeRosa University Center on the University of the Pacific campus from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 4. The theme of the event is “Fabric of Our Community … 45 Years in the Making.” The fundraiser will be a celebration of the diversity of the community and CMC’s long history as a nonprofit organization serving those in need in San Joaquin and Solano counties.

The fundraiser will take place in the ballroom at the DeRosa University Center, and it will give those who attend the opportunity to learn about CMC’s history, celebrate its successes, and hear about the non-profit organization’s plans for the future as it becomes more embedded in the fabric of the communities it serves. The Gala Fundraiser will include dinner, dancing, and a silent auction.

“CMC is dedicated to reaching every patient who relies on us for high-quality medical, dental and behavioral healthcare,” CEO Christine Noguera said. “Access to healthcare is a right, and this fundraiser is a great opportunity for the community to step up and make sure CMC can continue to expand and broaden the services our patients depend on us to provide.”

November’s event will be CMC’s first Gala Fundraiser since before the pandemic. During the past three years, CMC played an integral role in mitigating the spread of COVID-19 and grew to 28 neighborhood health centers serving more than 111,000 patients a year. CMC launched a mobile mental health program in partnership with the City of Stockton; built a community-based residential detox center with funding support from San Joaquin County; broke ground on an East Lodi clinic; and developed plans for an adolescent health center in downtown Stockton.

Tickets to the Gala Fundraiser are $175. Sponsorships start at $2,500. For information on tickets or sponsorships, visit www.cmcenters.org/giving or contact CMC Director of Development Jennie Rodriguez at jrmoore@cmcenters.org.
