Gala festivities begin at 5:30pm with a cocktails and hors d'oeuvres reception, and include dinner, silent and live auctions, live entertainment, and dancing. Attendees will have opportunities to meet and welcome Ms. Yamaguchi. Guest speakers also include Miss California Eileen Kim and Mt. Diablo Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Robert Martinez.

Funds from the gala will support Yours Humanly local and global programs, which reach disadvantaged children in the United States, as well as Cambodia, India, Nepal, the Philippines, and Haiti.
