Such a fun day at Mayacama Golf club for the 25th annual Charles Schulz Celebrity Golf Classic! Mayacama is a lovely setting, and Amber and the whole team at The Schulz do an amazing job. Once again, the Lytton tribe led the way, launching our fund a need with a $500,000 lead gift!

Props to the Wilhelm family for putting the whole of Mayacama behind this event, and the inimitable Jon O'Hurley for his foundational support. Yay, Sonoma!

Such an honor to get to present to the Silicon Valley chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals. The turnout was impressive and the engagement was off the charts. My 40 minute presentation was followed by a lively 50 minute QnA. Great group and an amazing opportunity to share and learn.

The Paramount Gala is always such a fun time. This is just a little bit of the vibe leading up to the auction and concert. Not pictured: the silent auction, dinner or after concert concert. Or the pinball, there was pinball, too!

Not to mention some record setting fundraising! Good times.

Just a few scenes from the Paramount Gala. It's impossible to really convey the size, scope and scale of this event. Suffice it to say, it's Texas sized, but Austin weird.
