Board-Hosted Salon Event Summer 2025

Dignity Health Foundation – Inland Empire's fourth Salon Event, which took place on Thursday, June 26, 2025, at Kimberly Crest House and Gardens was the perfect kick-ff for the summer. This unforgettable evening was graciously hosted by Kimberly Crest House and Gardens and our DHFIE board member, Dean McVey.

Guests were treated to an exclusive experience that began with a lively cocktail reception and tours of Kimberly Crest House & Gardens, a true Redlands gem. This beautiful 6-acre estate features a Victorian French Chateau and stunning Italian Renaissance-style gardens. Originally built in 1897 by Mrs. Cornelia Hill, the property was later acquired in 1905 by Helen Cheney Kimberly and her husband, John Alfred Kimberly. After their passing, their daughter, Mary Kimberly-Shirk, inherited the estate and generously gifted it to the people of Redlands. The event concluded with a gourmet dinner, beautifully curated by Gwen Marlowe Foods and Catering.

It was truly a night to remember, offering guests an exclusive viewing of Kimberly Crest.
