On November 3, 2011, we welcomed 70 Chrysalis supporters and their guests at the second annual Chrysalis in Autumn event held at the recently-opened Mr. C Hotel. Guests were treated to an exquisite meal with wine pairings, and world-reknowned service made famous by the Cipriani family. The evening's program included special guests: skid row's Senior Lead Officer Deon Joseph, downtown real-estate developer Tom Gilmore, and one of Chrysalis' own success stories, Gregory Price. The conversation delved into the realities of homelessness and poverty in our city, the roles played by businesses and the larger community, and the impact of Chrysalis' work.

Thanks to our donors, the event brought in over $135,000. 

Special thanks to our event sponsors Grey Goose and Modus Operandi Cellars for generously providing cocktails and wine for the evening.

Chrysalis in Autumn

Inaugurated in 2010, Chrysalis in Autumn connects a select group of individuals who are interested in playing a role in the organization’s future. Limited to 70 attendees, the intimate event is designed to bring together socially-conscious people who are interested in thoughtful dialogue, knowledge-building and true engagement in one of the most critical issues facing Los Angeles—homelessness, joblessness and poverty. What does it mean to be a leader today and how can the independent spirit and passion of Chrysalis’ founders be carried forward?
