Dear Friends,


As we begin the new year, we are reminded that our work has always been rooted in people, relationships built on trust, presence, and connection. In 2026, we are excited to invite our community to spend time with us outside of our office and program spaces, getting to know the team behind the mission in a more personal way.


Throughout the first half of the year, we will be hosting a series of community fundraising events at local restaurants. These gatherings are intentionally designed as casual meet-ups where community members can stop by, share a meal, connect with us, ask questions, and learn more about the work we do together across the Antelope Valley.


Whether you are a longtime supporter or meeting us for the first time, these events are an open invitation to connect. See our 2026 Fundraising Schedule below. Additional details will be shared ahead of each event. We hope you'll join us - around the table, in conversation, and in community.


With appreciation,


Valley Oasis

January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month. In recognition, we are hosting a virtual webinar via Zoom designed for Antelope Valley community partners and service providers.


The webinar will support participants in recognizing indicators of human trafficking, understanding local and regional trends, responding in a survivor-centered manner, and strengthening collaboration with law enforcement. This webinar, along with additional tools and resources, can be found in our Community Resource Folder.
