The event begins at 6 p.m. and is being held at the Mountain Falls Golf Club, 5001 S. Clubhouse Drive, in Pahrump.
During this annual dinner gala, Christmas trees, wreaths and stockings have been creatively decorated by community members and will be auctioned off to raise funds for the hospice and services in the Pahrump, Crystal and Amargosa areas.

“Every year this gala brings together wonderful supporters for a very special evening,” said Carole Fisher, Nathan Adelson Hospice president and CEO.
“As we continue our compassionate mission of caring for patients and their loved ones through our palliative and hospice efforts, we are grateful to everyone who supports our non-profit organization,” she said in her statement.
Nathan Adelson Hospice, a partner in hospice care and palliative medicine for almost 40 years, said it is the largest non-profit hospice in Southern Nevada.
It cares for an average of 400 hospice and palliative care patients daily.
In 1978, Nathan Adelson Hospice began providing home care hospice service in Southern Nevada with the mission to offer patients and their loved ones with comprehensive end-of-life care and influence better care for all in the community.
In 1983, Nathan Adelson Hospice opened an in-patient hospice in Las Vegas.
The hospice also is home to The Center for Compassionate Care, a non-profit counseling agency, providing individual, group and family counseling services to address grief, loss and issues related to surviving life-threatening illnesses.
