In light of continued health uncertainties related to the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we have decided to postpone this event out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of sponsors and their guests, staff, and volunteers.

Together, the team at United Community and The Friends of United Community are exploring options for holding this event later in the year. Additional updates will be provided as they become available.
You're invited for an enjoyable evening -- and an opportunity to change lives in your community at United Community's Spring Gala 2020, hosted by The Friends of United Community!

We hope you will consider becoming a Gala sponsor. Your sponsorship is an investment in accelerating United Community's efforts to end multi-generational poverty in our community!

  • Sponsor the Gala: event sponsorships, including publicity benefits and reserved seats, start at $500.  
  • Make your seat reservations. 
  • Purchase a raffle ticket online for a chance to win an all-inclusive trip.
