What is Gala?
Since CARPOOL is a non-profit organization, we rely heavily on fundraising and donations to operate. This event consists of a formal dinner, silent auction, and a live auction to raise almost half of the yearly funds required for CARPOOL to operate.

If you have or know of an item that CARPOOL could use in Gala’s live or silent auctions, we would love to hear from you. We love having a variety of in-kind donations, ranging from tangible items like autographed memorabilia to intangible items such as gift certificates and weekend getaways.
