“Treasures for TIHAN,” the signature fundraising event for the programs and services of TIHAN, is Saturday, June 15 at the Doubletree Hotel at Reid Park. Under the leadership of event co-chairs Kim and Alicia Talerico, this is one of Tucson’s premiere benefits, with a crowd of hundreds of Tucsonans enjoying a fun night and bidding on great auction items, all to benefit programs for people living with HIV/AIDS.

If you would like to donate an item for our “Treasures for TIHAN” auction, or if you want to help us collect treasures to auction off, please let us know! We’re seeking donations of antiques, gift certificates, trips, jewelry, rugs, unique gift items, textiles, ceramics, event tickets, hotel/condo/bed & breakfast stays—fun things that will make interesting auctions items and bring in some funds for TIHAN.

And we are seeking businesses, groups, and organizations to help sponsor this year’s event. If you or your business/group wants to be a sponsor for the 16th Annual “Treasures for TIHAN,” please let us know. Sponsorship levels begin at $500 and each level offers you a host of benefits, including free tickets, publicity, and great karma!

Come on board and help us make this another grand event! Volunteers are needed for a variety of roles, both now as we plan the event, and on the night of the event itself. We need volunteers to assist with making phone calls to last year’s item donors, pick up auction items that have been promised, and assistance with event set-up and more. To get involved, please contact Scott at 299-6647 or scott@tihan.org or Kim Talerico at 975-9600 or drumlinemom7@hotmail.com
