It's almost here - Sonoran Stars is coming up on April 30! We hope you'll join us for this fabulous dinner, concert and silent and live auction. 

 

Funds raised at the event allow your land trust to accomplish our important land protection mission, including acquisition and stewardship of some of our region's most important and beloved natural areas, as well as the engagement of our community in this work.  

 

Your ticket purchase, as well as purchases at our silent and live auction, will go directly toward supporting land conservation right here in our community!  The RSVP deadline is this weekend, so call us at 480-659-5133 to reserve your seats soon!

 

With thanks, 

Desert Foothills Land Trust
