People are invited to kick up their heels during the inaugural gala fundraiser for Stepping Stones Alliance.

Boots & Bling is Sept. 21, 5-10 p.m. at the Eastern Oregon Trade and Event Center, 1705 E. Airport Road. Tickets are $50 each via bit.ly/3z1qvj7.

In addition to dancing and music with Dallin Puzey, the evening includes various games that offer a fun way to make donations to the nonprofit organization. CG Public House is catering the meal. The menu features marinated tri-tip drizzled with a rich demi-glace, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, green beans sauteed with bacon and onions, Caesar salad and rolls. Also, Midway Bar & Grill will provide a no-host bar.

Stepping Stones Alliance is committed to providing resources for the unhoused. Its services include the Sleep Center, which offers year-round nightly shelter, including scheduled transportation to the site. The Navigation Center provides needed services and access to available resources. Individual Shelter Units for one or two adults are available for participants engaged in personal action plans.
