WiSH on the Roof Returns November 6, 2025 – Wish Education Foundation

The WiSH Education Foundation is thrilled to announce the return of its signature annual fundraiser, Wine on the Roof. Due to popular demand and with tongue fully in cheek, the nonprofit is transitioning the name of the event this year to Wine ON UNDER the Roof! Whether outdoors on a rooftop or inside a beautiful venue, this elegant evening continues to blend fine food, wine, and community spirit in support of local students. The event will take place on Thursday, November 6, 2025, from 6:30 to 10 p.m. at Bella Vida (Santa Clarita Senior Center), 27180 Golden Valley Road, Santa Clarita.

The celebration begins with a lively wine and appetizer reception, complete with live jazz by the Valencia High School Jazz Band. Guests will then be treated to a spectacular five-course seated dinner, each course created by a different chef from a local restaurant and paired with wines carefully selected to complement the flavors. Adding to the atmosphere, acclaimed musician Lance Allyn will provide live music during dinner with surprise live entertainment and Emcee Ed Masterson, WiSH Board Member and past SCV Man of the Year, keeps the evening flowing with his trademark energy and warmth.

Throughout the night, guests can take part in exciting auctions featuring exclusive items and experiences, all while enjoying the company of community leaders, business owners, and fellow supporters of education. The event offers a chance to celebrate in style while raising vital funds for student programs in the William S. Hart Union High School District, including initiatives in arts, wellness, STEM, special education and career readiness.

“WiSH on the Roof is more than a dinner and wine experience—it’s a celebration of community and a chance to invest in the future of our students,” said Christy Alben, Chair of the event.
