3rd Annual Mountain Gala

You're Invited!

An Evening of Hope, Resilience & Opportunity

It’s been almost 2 years since Hurricane Helene changed lives across Western North Carolina. Thanks to the generosity of neighbors like you, countless families have been able to find stability and begin rebuilding, but our work is far from finished. Join us for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate the power of resilience, honor our scholarship recipients, and raise critical funds to support HopeMill’s mission of creating hope, opportunity, and brighter futures throughout our communities.

Guests will also have the opportunity to participate in live and silent auctions featuring exclusive Western North Carolina items, multiple raffle drawings, and prize giveaways throughout the evening, with every dollar raised going directly to those in need. There will be delicious food, heavy hors d’oeuvres, beer, wine, and signature drinks.Together, we will celebrate the impact HopeMill is making while investing in future opportunities for students and families across our region.
