American Dream Gala

The American Dream Gala is Truman Heritage Habitat for Humanity's biggest fundraiser of the year.

The event will be held at the Independence Events Center and emceed by Mavericks Coach, and partner, Scott Hillman. Be sure to mark your calendars for Saturday, August 21st at 5:30pm, for this is an event you surely will not want to miss.

The evening will begin with a silent auction, followed by a tasty dinner, family testimonial, live auction, as well as a program including our "Dream Maker Award" presentation honoring those instrumental in fulfilling our mission this year.

Come and place your bids during our silent auction, featuring beautifully themed tablescapes by local designers. Tablescapes include themes by yearly favorite Cameron's of Lee's Summit, as well as several new designers such as Hy-Vee Catering of Independence and Home Finishings of Lee's Summit. With such an eclectic and interesting group of designers, all tastes are sure to be satisfied.

Some live auction items include a week's stay at the Wyndam in Pompano Beach, Florida, AirTran Airline tickets, a golf outing, Holiday Light Flight, a Kansas Speedway weekend, and so much more.
