.Jewish Community Free Clinic Hosts Annual Spirit of Hippocrates Dinner & Auction

Drawing on the traditions of charity and care first practiced by ancient Greek physician Hippocrates, the Jewish Community Free Clinic in Santa Rosa has been providing free medical care to those in need, regardless of denomination or other discriminating factors, since 2001. 

This weekend, the clinic holds its fifth annual Spirit of Hippocrates Dinner and Auction fundraiser on Sunday, June 5, at Congregation Shomrei Torah, where guests can dine on delicious food, sip on local wines and beverages that reflect our county’s wondrous bounty, and celebrate the artistic contributions made to the clinic by local artists Leslie Gattmann and Marsha Connell.

Gattmann and Connell have recently completed a “Giving Tree” art project in the clinic that bears the names of donors and supporters in colorful leaves, flowers and other artistic representations, which will be shown in a slideshow at the event. 

With a family-style feast and silent auction, the upcoming evening will help the clinic continue to offer services to the community and celebrate those involved in its ceaseless efforts. The event takes place on June 5 at Congregation Shomrei Torah, 2600 Bennett Valley Road, Santa Rosa. 5pm. $54 per person or $360 for table of 8. RSVP is recommended as space is limited. www.jewishfreeclinic.org.
