Decorations Acknowledgements I can’t believe Soroptimist International of Corona is celebrating 11 years with our signature event, “Chocolate, Wine and Jazz”! Each year the fundraiser has received more attention and recently won an award from our international federation of Soroptimist. There are many reasons why this event is always so successful! The community has embraced this unique project, and our business partners join us in sponsoring not only because of the event itself but for the many great projects we support within our community. None of this could be accomplished without the wonderful dedicated members of Soroptimist International of Corona who give their expertise, creativity and professionalism to keep Chocolate, Wine & Jazz new and fresh each year. This is our second year with a new format and facility, thanks to the brainstorming efforts of our membership. We hope you love the changes, adore the new location, and as always, we thank you for your continued support of our effort to improve the lives of women and girls in our community and throughout the world.

Seventy-nine percent are forced into sexual servitude. • 66 percent of human trafficking victims are women and 13 percent are girls. • In the United States, the average age of entry into prostitution is 12 to 14. Too few people know that slavery still exists in the 21st Century. A first step in ending slavery is to create awareness, so Soroptimist International of Corona has made a stance that we will no longer stand for human trafficking. Our goal is to raise awareness in our community about the signs of human trafficking. We have partnered with the Riverside County Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force (RCHAT) as a non-governmental organization (NGO) whose primary objective is to develop resources to educate, prevent, intervene, and treat victims of human trafficking. SI Corona has made the hearty commitment to educate 50,000 people in Corona. We have obtained materials from the National Human Trafficking Resource Center for distribution in local areas where people may be at risk of exploitation. If you think that you have come in contact with a victim of human trafficking, call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center Hotline at 1-888-3737-888. This hotline is coordinated with local law enforcement in Riverside County. For questions, please email Shawn Dredla at [email protected] or read more about trafficking at SoroptimistInternational.org and Soroptimist.org. We are pleased to share with you a NEW initiative from our Soroptimist International of the Americas. Our Corona Club wants to involve our community to work alongside our members in our mission to “Improve the lives of woman and girls in our local community and throughout the world”. The LIVE YOUR DREAM Campaign has developed into a community that connects people online to do volunteer work that helps women and girls to live their dreams. When you join the Live Your Dream community, you join a group of like-minded individuals who dream of making the world a better place for women and girls. We encourage you to visit our website www.liveyourdream.org and JOIN to make a girl’s dream transition to reality.

Tom’s Farms His parents said that Tom wanted to be a farmer from the day he was born in Kansas City, Missouri. He moved west in the early 70’s and leased land in Lake Elsinore, then soon moved to today’s idyllic spot in Temescal Canyon, naming his place Tom’s Farms. The produce was fresh and the people were friendly and Tom’s Farms became a favorite destination. Tom eventually bought the land, and the place grew and grew. In 1977, a hamburger restaurant was added. Today Tom’s Farms includes a variety of shops, restaurants, and attractions for family entertainment.

Seventy-nine percent are forced into sexual servitude. • 66 percent of human trafficking victims are women and 13 percent are girls. • In the United States, the average age of entry into prostitution is 12 to 14. Too few people know that slavery still exists in the 21st Century. A first step in ending slavery is to create awareness, so Soroptimist International of Corona has made a stance that we will no longer stand for human trafficking. Our goal is to raise awareness in our community about the signs of human trafficking. We have partnered with the Riverside County Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force (RCHAT) as a non-governmental organization (NGO) whose primary objective is to develop resources to educate, prevent, intervene, and treat victims of human trafficking. SI Corona has made the hearty commitment to educate 50,000 people in Corona. We have obtained materials from the National Human Trafficking Resource Center for distribution in local areas where people may be at risk of exploitation. If you think that you have come in contact with a victim of human trafficking, call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center Hotline at 1-888-3737-888. This hotline is coordinated with local law enforcement in Riverside County. For questions, please email Shawn Dredla at [email protected] or read more about trafficking at SoroptimistInternational.org and Soroptimist.org. We are pleased to share with you a NEW initiative from our Soroptimist International of the Americas. Our Corona Club wants to involve our community to work alongside our members in our mission to “Improve the lives of woman and girls in our local community and throughout the world”. The LIVE YOUR DREAM Campaign has developed into a community that connects people online to do volunteer work that helps women and girls to live their dreams. When you join the Live Your Dream community, you join a group of like-minded individuals who dream of making the world a better place for women and girls. We encourage you to visit our website www.liveyourdream.org and JOIN to make a girl’s dream transition to reality.

Decorations Acknowledgements I can’t believe Soroptimist International of Corona is celebrating 11 years with our signature event, “Chocolate, Wine and Jazz”! Each year the fundraiser has received more attention and recently won an award from our international federation of Soroptimist. There are many reasons why this event is always so successful! The community has embraced this unique project, and our business partners join us in sponsoring not only because of the event itself but for the many great projects we support within our community. None of this could be accomplished without the wonderful dedicated members of Soroptimist International of Corona who give their expertise, creativity and professionalism to keep Chocolate, Wine & Jazz new and fresh each year. This is our second year with a new format and facility, thanks to the brainstorming efforts of our membership. We hope you love the changes, adore the new location, and as always, we thank you for your continued support of our effort to improve the lives of women and girls in our community and throughout the world.
