The fifth annual Diamonds & Denim Gala and Auction will be held at 4 p.m. May 17 at the Healthy Harvest Food Bank Warehouse, 55 Commerce Parkway, Warsaw.
The fundraising event coincides with Healthy Harvest’s 15-year anniversary, which will be celebrated in July.

“I have been with this organization for eight of its 15 years,” said president and chief executive officer Cindy Balderson. “And in those eight years I have watched this community come together in support of our mission at Healthy Harvest, to provide hope in the communities we serve through the right food and education. Whether it’s been through food drives, gleaning, sorting, or donations, the support of our local community is and will always remain at the heart of our organization.
“Being our largest community fundraiser of the year, the success of our Diamonds & Denim Gala is vital to continuing the positive work we do in the region,” continued Balderson. “Each Diamonds & Denim Gala has been an absolute joy, and every dollar raised goes back into the community through our food bank and aquaponics programs. It is a great way to connect with other supporters and celebrate all the amazing work we accomplish here locally.”
Diamonds & Denim will feature silent and live auctions showcasing a selection of items; beer, wine, signature drinks; dinner and dessert from Willaby’s Cafe and Catering; and music by the Haus Band with hits from the 70s and 80s.
