Our annual Perfect Pairings fundraising dinner was held on Saturday, March 14, and once again proved to be a wonderful evening in support of Healthy Cities Tutoring. Supporters, tutors, students, and families gathered at the Alexandria to celebrate another year of strengthening our communities through education and mentorship.

Guests enjoyed delicious appetizers while live music from the Woodside High School Jazz Ensemble set the tone for the evening. During the dinner program, we heard an inspiring story from tutor/tutee pair Eileen Andrade-Kitching (tutor) and her tutee, Abraham, whose relationship beautifully reflected the impact of our program. The evening also included a lively auction and a fun round of Heads or Tails.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and supported the event. Your continued generosity helps us provide free tutoring and mentorship to students and families in our community, and we are honored to have you as part of the Healthy Cities Tutoring family.
