Santa Barbara County Action Network invites you to sponsor our 2025 Inspiring Leadership Awards & Fundraiser on Sunday, June 22 at 2 p.m. in the Fountain Courtyard at the Corque Hotel, 420 Alisal Road in Solvang. 

This year we are combining our North and South fundraisers into one exciting, joyous mid-county fundraiser to bring together activists from throughout the county. This moment in time calls for us to stand together as one community to face challenges on a number of fronts.

We have established an Advisory Council that will supplement our board of directors in being our eyes and ears throughout the county to let us know of situations as they develop and help us spring into action.

Thanks to your support and that of other sponsors, donors, grantors and members, we have:

• Launched a Water Guardians group for the Santa Maria River
• Launched an Eastside SB neighborhood advocacy network
• Persuaded the County to deny a 50-year project oil trucking project
• Fought the restart of offshore oil production
• Fought development on the Gaviota Coast
• Networked and supported partners through twice monthly Roundtables
• Advocated for more access to public resources, affordable housing, tenant protections, resilient communities, saving farmland, protecting immigrants, and more

For more information on our accomplishments last year, please see our 2024 Newsletter.

Your support is vital to our effort. We are ready and will continue to fight for our community with your help. To be included in all of our promotions, sign up by May 15.  

Thank you for your support!

(P.S. On this form, when you see "Will you come?" think "Will you sponsor?" When you see "Purchase tickets," think "Purchase sponsorship." We were not able to change that wording.)
