Tickets are $125 per person. Forty VIP tickets are available for $175 per person and include a private reception with Garibaldi before the event. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.womens-empowerment.org. Garibaldi grew up in South Sacramento and became well-known when he won fourth place on “America’s Got Talent” in 2012. Since then, he has raised more than $1 million for charities across the world through his live paintings that transform a blank black canvas into pop art icons. Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, Women’s Empowerment was recently featured on NBC’s TODAY Show and on CNN.com for offering the most comprehensive job-readiness program in the Sacramento area designed specifically for women who are homeless and their children. The 2014 Organization of the Year has graduated 1,349 homeless women and their 3,500 children. Last year, 93 percent of graduates found homes and 83 percent found jobs or enrolled in school or training. The program combines self-esteem courses, job training, health classes and support services to help homeless women across diverse ages, races and cultures. Women’s Empowerment is funded through private donations from the community and receives no government funding except for in-kind rent from the County of Sacramento.
