Ruby XV Cup — Sponsorship Opportunities

 

Join us for the 15th Annual Wounded Veterans Polo Benefit. The Commandery of St. Francis is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) — no payroll, no paid staff, no executive director, no overhead. 100% of net proceeds pass directly to small, high-impact programs serving wounded service members across Northern California.
