A silent auction and cocktail party will be held Saturday in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Common Ground — The Westside HIV Community Center.

The event will be held at a private residence in Hancock Park and tickets are $75 and $125.

Common Ground was founded in 1992 by a group of local citizens whose friends were too ill to travel to the nearest HIV/AIDS service provider. The organization now has a $900,000 budget and delivers case management and social services to 220 men and women living with HIV/AIDS on the Westside. The group also provides HIV prevention education. For more information about the celebration, call 310-314-5496.
