This program is supported in part by a grant from the Haverhill Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
Haverhill City Council President Timothy J. Jordan will be honored with the Emmaus’ Community Partnership Award when its Latin-inspired fifth annual Sip, Sample & Support gala takes place this month.
Jordan has supported Emmaus since volunteering when he was in high school and is a regular Cycle for Shelter bicycle rider. He will also host the live auction.
The fundraiser, with master of ceremony Katherine Underwood, takes place Thursday, May 14, from 5:30-9 p.m., at Bradford Country Club, 201 Chadwick Road, Haverhill. Early bird tickets are $150 and benefit the nonprofit’s mission to provide low-income housing and support services to help formerly unhoused families and individuals.
The night includes cocktails, dinner with drink pairings, a wine pull, live and silent auction and awards ceremony. There’s more information at EmmausInc.org.
