About Us

'Evening Under the Stars' is the AIDS Assistance Program's cornerstone annual gala fundraiser that yearly generates a major portion of the operating budget for our Food Voucher Program for low-income men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS here in the Coachella Valley. Our past year's galas have accounted for over half of our food voucher expenses each year. 2010's gala will be the 17th year for gala fundraising event, which the local Desert Sun newspaper has called "The Jewel of the Desert's fundraising Season".

Past Performers: In the past 16 years 'Evening Under the Stars' has featured the talents of Nell Carter, Tyne Daly, Melissa Manchester, Jane Oliver, Lorna Luft, Susanne Sommers, Bea Arthur and our 10th anniversary spectacular highlighted Barry Manilow and his orchestra. Ms. Nancy Wilson headlined our 2004 gala with the Las Vegas Rat Pack & the Dry Martini Orchestra as our opening. 2005 showcased the legendary talents of Ms. Lily Tomlin, 2006 saw a return of Barry Manilow with his new Las Vegas Review, 2007 and 2009 showcased the legendary talents of Mary Wilson of the Supremes, and 2008 presented Pink Martini!
