Enjoy an evening with Community Conscience at our Spring Wine and Cooking Festival on Saturday April 10, at 6:00 pm. Zoom with us at our free, fun-filled, at-home celebration. Learn about food and wine pairings from an executive chef and a sommelier, laugh with a comedian you will remember, listen to a professional pianist and bass combo, hear how spirits, those in bottles, are created, and join a sunset tour of Bouchaine Winery at the southern tip of Napa Valley. Viewers can support Community Conscience in two ways: become a sponsor for the event or place bids at the Silent Auction. Interested sponsors should contact Robin Britt, Executive Director of Community Conscience. Bidding at the Silent Auction will begin on March 29th and end on April 12, 2021. Proceeds from this event support Community Conscience, a non-profit that owns and operates the Human Services Center in Thousand Oaks, CA. The Human Services Center supports regional social services by providing free rent (over $300,000 annually) to 13 nonprofits housed in the building. These nonprofits are able to put their rental savings into direct services for over 53,000 clients each year. Community Conscience selects its tenants based on their ability to meet community needs which supplement, rather than duplicate, the services of other agencies housed at the Human Services Center. Because they are located in one place, the nonprofit agencies form partnerships and make cross referrals for their clients.
