The What
What is a “Soul Shaker”? Inspired by Pat's late father Hueguester “Soul Shaker” James, a Soul Shaker is a FORCE, with a passion to serve. Our hope is to bring together all the Soul Shakers of our community to host an impactful event to serve our seniors. We are sure this star-studded night will be filled with memories, fellowship, and friends, and serve as an opportunity to collaborate with philanthropic minds on how we can better serve our senior population.
Stay tuned for the 2023 Gala Details!
