Our Yours Humanly 2026\u00a0Gift of Schooling Gala<\/em>\u00a0was an amazing night of fun and fundraising! Thank you to those who attended and made the night so special with your presence and participation! For those who could not attend, you were missed, but we do recognize your contributions and support.<\/p>\n

We are deeply grateful to all our sponsors for making this event possible. A special thank you to our Gala Presenting Sponsor James A. Bach, Law Offices of James A. Bach, for his generosity and firm belief in our mission. Shout outs to the spirited Alex Savidge, KTVU Ch. 2, who did a fabulous job at the helm as our master of ceremonies, and to our joyful\u00a0guest speaker Rachel Axt, Miss California, whose personal stories about working with children with autism and special needs illustrated the importance of acceptance and inclusion in the lives of our children and youth.<\/p>\n

Thank you to Chenda Chhi, founder and CEO of Coral Tree Education Foundation, our 2026 Leading With the Heart<\/em> Honoree, recognized for her inspired vision and tireless leadership on behalf of Cambodian children and youth, and particularly girls and women. Ms. Chhi\u2019s presentation was compelling and truly heartfelt \u2014 you could hear a pin drop. Thank you to Kayla Turnage, representing Assemblymember Anamarie Avila Farias, for presenting Yours Humanly with a Certificate of Recognition. And thank you most sincerely to our fantastic dancers from Dance House Walnut Creek, led by Artistic Director Alex Blitstein, for providing lively and engaging entertainment.<\/p>\n

And a very special thank you to our gala co-chairs Vangie Long and Rhea Johnson, who once again put on a dazzling fundraiser that will live in our memories for a long time!\u00a0This year\u2019s theme was a Masquerade Affair!<\/em> We were delighted to see so many attendees lean into the magic and mystery of the evening with masks and flourishes to their formal wear!<\/p>\n

Photos of the extraordinary evening are available here<\/a> and on our Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
