Your support helps families achieve housing and financial stability through personalized long-term solutions, transforming lives and improving the Bay Area community.
This year, we are proud to honor The Anita and Santosh Mehra Foundation for their commitment to our mission, a dedication that began when their daughter, Aruna Mehra Light, first volunteered at Raphael House back in 2010. Aruna continues to treasure that time and now serves as a volunteer on our Executive Leadership Council, showcasing the lasting impact of our work on someone who has seen its effects firsthand. We are incredibly grateful for the Mehra family’s support and thrilled to celebrate their legacy of service and generosity at this year’s gala.
