SACRAMENTO PHILHARMONIC & OPERA “TWO IN TUNE” PARTNERSHIP (2013 – 2015) A partnership between Hank Fisher Properties and the Sacramento Philharmonic & Opera’s “Two in Tune” program provided transportation services for thousands of local students to experience the magic of live theater and musical performances. Many children have never been exposed to a live symphonic or operatic performance; this program was designed to open up another artistic dimension to children who may otherwise only experience music through a computer or mobile device. “When I first heard of this partnership opportunity, it had an electric sense of purpose behind it,” said Nancy Fisher, President and CEO of Hank Fisher Properties. “However, most importantly, this program helped schools reverse the financially driven decline in their ability to connect young people with different art forms.” Without private support, such as the Hank Fisher Properties donation, transportation costs would prevent multiple schools from connecting local students with professional classical music. As part of this program, students attended a full rehearsal of “Traditionally Modern” by the Sacramento Philharmonic Orchestra, Giuseppe Verdi’s famous grand opera, “Il Trovatore,” and an orchestral rehearsal for the Sacramento Philharmonic Orchestra’s “Violin Magic.” SPCA PARTNERSHIP (2010 – 2012) With the presentation of a check for $35,000, Hank Fisher Properties became the largest single contributor to the local SPCA’s Senior Services Program, which helps seniors retain and care for their beloved pets. The funds were raised through a golf tournament organized and sponsored by Hank Fisher Properties at Del Paso Country Club. The event is now planned to be held annually in spring. Through Hank Fisher Properties’ support of the Seniors Services Program, the SPCA is able to provide low-cost pet care workshops, discounts on pet adoptions, obedience training, a helpline for animal behavior consultation, “Love on Loan” pet visits to senior residences, and other services. These services are designed to enable the elderly to enjoy the health and wellness benefits of pet ownership. “Hank Fisher Properties has been working to enhance the lives of seniors for over 35 years,” Nancy stated, “so, we are pleased to team with the SPCA to help older adults maintain relationships with their beloved animal companions. Pet ownership can be especially beneficial to seniors and we are happy to support services that allow them to maintain these valuable relationships.” Hank Fisher Properties 641 Fulton Avenue #200 Sacramento, CA 95825 (916) 485-1441
