Spirit of Giving Gala 2024

September 7 @ 6:00 pm

Your Community Foundation of Southern New Mexico invites you to join us for a magical evening of coming together to celebrate at the 2024 Spirit of Giving Gala! This annual celebration brings together individuals and organizations who are committed to making a positive impact across southern New Mexico. One of the most unique and exciting aspects of the Spirit of Giving Gala is the incorporation of Alebrijes. The mystical alebrijes date back to Mexico in 1936 when they were first dreamed up by the artist, Pedro Linares. Alebrijes have become symbols of hope, dreams, and transformation. These intricately designed creatures are not only beautiful works of art but also serve as a reminder of the transformation that can take place when we come together to give back to the community. The Spirit of Giving Gala, with its focus on philanthropy and community, truly embodies the spirit of giving!

The evening begins with a beautiful welcome of music and dance that leads to our cocktail hour! Guests are then offered a complimentary signature drink as they are guided into our Casino Room. In the Casino Room, attendees can enjoy games like blackjack, craps, and Texas hold’em, all in fun to support our 48 nonprofit endowment partners! During cocktail hour, guests may also bid on items in our silent auction, preview one-of-a-kind experiences up for bid in our live auction, and explore the Spirit of Giving pop-ups and photo booths. Following dinner, guests may continue their night playing games, having fun making magical memories, and continue to bid in the silent auction until it closes at 9:30 pm, with the night ending at 11:00 pm.

When you purchase a ticket or make a contribution to our Gala, know that you are furthering the important work that your Community Foundation is doing to better serve, connect and support the lives of those who call southern New Mexico home, including our 48 non-profit partners. We can’t wait to celebrate with you in the spirit of giving! Together, we can make amazing things happen in southern New Mexico!
