Casa Colina continues strong focus on patient care
A sea of supporters fills the Sheraton Fairplex's main ballroom during Casa Colina’s 90th dinner and gala.
It was a night to remember for Casa Colina as more than 700 people attended their Tribute to Courage 90th annual dinner and gala at the Sheraton Fairplex on March 14. Proceeds from the fundraiser benefited the nonprofit’s free and subsidized programs for patients who need financial assistance. Supporters also were able to meet the many patients Casa Colina has impacted from numerous video profiles throughout the evening. On the tech side, there was even a live exoskeleton demonstration.
