TEL HI’s 6th Annual Fall Fundraiser Celebrates Community and Generosity 
TEL HI’s 6th Annual Fall Fundraiser brought together the San Francisco community for an evening of laughter, connection, and support on Saturday, October 17.
Supporters, local business owners, current and former board members, parents, and program participants gathered at TEL HI to support essential programs and services. Guests enjoyed freshly prepared paella, locally made cookies, wine, and craft beer donated by San Francisco Brewing Co. Bay Area comedian, emcee, and auctioneer Jesse Fernandez kept the evening full of laughter and entertainment. Guests bid enthusiastically on items created and donated by TEL HI staff and students, including a custom family portrait by Cross Program Art Specialist Jamon Tyus, expert garden advice from Garden Specialist Natasha Babaian, and a decoupage chair made by Beacon students.
