More than 170 Aim High supporters came out on May 16th, 2009 to enjoy great wines, view the incredible classic car collection at Academy of Art University, and support summer education for Bay Area youth.
Chaired by Hildy Shandell and Glenn Shannon, Cult Wines and Classic Cars raised more than $50,000 for Aim High.
Hydra Mendoza, Education Advisor to the Mayor of San Francisco, spoke of Aim High’s vital place in the education landscape. Her daughter Ashoka will spend her 3rd summer with Aim High this year, and son Santiago will begin Aim High this summer.
Guests also heard about Aim High’s powerful impact from Viviana Montoya-Hernandez, who graduated Aim High in 1996 and now serves as a Site Director in East Palo Alto.
Support from the Academy of Art University, Bottlenotes, Charles Schwab, and more than 30 additional sponsors made the event an incredible success.
