Shelter to Soldier's largest annual fundraiser, our Be the Light Gala raises critical funds to support the rescue dogs and veterans served by the program's mission. Guests will enjoy musical entertainment, small bites, libations, three-course dinner overlooking the Pacific Ocean, event swag bags, and memorable moments with veteran recipients and the Shelter to Soldier Canine Ambassadors. Our exciting silent and live auction will be emceed by Clint Bell. All proceeds from the event will benefit Shelter to Soldier's programs serving our nation's brave veterans and homeless dogs in need of a forever home and life of purpose.Shelter to Soldier™ is a CA 501c3 nonprofit organization that adopts dogs from local shelters and trains them to become psychiatric service dogs for post-9/11 veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress (PTS), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and/or Military Sexual Trauma (MST). Our program also places emotional support animals (ESAs) with active duty military, veterans, gold star families and first responders.
