Helix Electric, a leading electrical contractor with over 3,000 employees nationwide, served as a Gold Sponsor for the 44th Annual Family House Gala that raised $1.2 million to support families caring for sick children. The March 7 event at The Conservatory at One Sansome celebrated Family House’s 10 years in Mission Bay while connecting the organization with community supporters. Family House provides housing and support services for families traveling to San Francisco for pediatric medical care, ensuring that financial barriers don’t prevent access to critical treatment. The fundraising total allows Family House to remain 100% free for every family with a sick child who walks through their doors, whether they stay for one night, one month or years. This milestone funding directly supports the organization’s mission to provide housing and support services to families during medical crises.

“Family House directly aligns with our core value of treating people right and demonstrates our commitment to supporting families during their most challenging times,” said Matt Liefer, Operations Manager, Helix Electric Inc. “We believe in giving back to the communities where we work, and this partnership allows us to make a meaningful impact for families who need support while caring for their sick children. “The electrical contractor regularly supports nonprofits and causes through fundraising, volunteering and raising awareness for organizations that align with its core values of treating people right and creating rewarding workplaces.
“This $1.2 million in funding raised ensures that no family will ever pay to stay at Family House while their child receives medical care, and corporate partners like Helix Electric make this promise possible,” said Jason Pengel, Executive Vice President of Helix Electric Inc. “Having businesses that recognize the financial strain families face during medical crises allows us to focus entirely on providing comfort and support when it matters most. “The gala featured a cocktail reception, gourmet dinner and live auction, bringing together board members, donors, volunteers and community friends.
