YOU BRING SCIENCE TO LIFE

Over 200 supporters attended Pepperwood’s third Sunset Celebration, hosted by its board of directors, on June 2, 2018. The event honored Lieutenant Ed Hoener of the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office for his outstanding service to Pepperwood as a leader at the emergency operations center following the October 2017 Northern California wildfires.

The evening featured comments by Pepperwood’s Founder and Chairman Herb Dwight and President & CEO Dr. Lisa Micheli, and was emceed by Development Director Julie Bartice. Composer and pianist Nolan Gasser curated a fantastic musical experience as the sun set over a beautiful Sonoma County backdrop. Together, the event had a net in excess of $190,000. Every dollar will go towards developing a better understanding of wildfire and reducing the risk of future catastrophic events.

Thank you so much for your incredible generosity and investment in science-based solutions to advance the health of Northern California’s land, water and wildlife!
