A Bucket List Day with the San Francisco Giants Benefits Schurig Center

What a treat to sit and talk with Bruce Bochy in the Giants dugout! Besides baseball, we talked player injuries, meditation and wine.

Schurig Center Board member Kati Miller celebrated her birthday with her husband Mike Shea in style with an amazing behind-the-scenes visit to AT&T Park hosted by author and sports journalist Joan Ryan as the San Francisco Giants faced the Cubs on July 10. Kati and Mike bid generously and won this once-in-a-lifetime experience during the live auction at the 2018 BAM Gala. About the game, Kati shared…

Celebrating my birthday with a true bucket list event was a treat. We joined sports writer, Joan Ryan on the field to meet Bruce Bochy, Brandon Crawford and Hunter Pence before the game, and then visited the broadcast booths during the game. We had field level tickets with Joan and passes to the Gotham Club. Thank you Joan for donating this amazing event to the Schurig gala and then making it all happen!

Schurig Center would like to thank both Joan Ryan and the San Francisco Giants for offering this experience in support of Schurig Center’s annual BAM Gala and also to Kati and Mike for bidding so generously on this item at the gala.

Even though the Giants lost, hope and healing were the big winners!

All proceeds from this experience benefitted the Karen Schurig Scholarship Fund – providing access to rehabilitative and support services for 70% of Schurig Center’s clients who live on a low income. This day at the ballpark truly changed lives. Thank you!

Thank You 2017 BAM Gala Supporters!

With your help, we raised over $150,000 to support the Karen G. Schurig Scholarship Fund!

Karen was the founder and former executive director of Schurig Center. It was her belief that no one should be denied access to our programs and services due to a lack of financial resources. Today, over 70% of the individuals who receive our support are reliant on this fund.

I also wanted to share with you that the Gala Committee worked very hard to provide a memorable evening while keeping event costs at a minimum – ensuring that 80 cents of every dollar raised went to the scholarship fund.

We hope you enjoyed the powerful testimonials, beautiful location, decorations, Master of Ceremonies Maria Ross, and the fabulous music provided by the Amanda Addleman Band and Zan Stewart and Eric Holder. We invite you enjoy some photos from the night of the event here.

I’d like to personally invite you to join us once again for our 2018 event, which is scheduled for the evening of Saturday, March 3, 2018. Tickets and sponsorship opportunities are available now. It’s going to be another memorable evening you won’t want to miss!

With gratitude,
