Step Into a Night of Sparkles and Support
This past Saturday, we celebrated the holiday season with glitz, giving, and good will! Despite the hectic nature of the time of year, our community came together to shine a light on how UNITED we can improve the quality of life for ALL in Lincoln County!
UWLC's Christmas Gala not only raises funds for UWLC’s vision of bringing communities together to face their greatest challenges from helping families find stability and empowering young people to responding to crises and so much more, but it also celebrates the holiday season and the connection to our community and each other. This year's gala had a 100% increase in funds raised--that means more mental health support for children who suffered trauma, more mentors in at-risk neighborhoods, more shelter for individuals experiencing homelessness, and so much more!
We want to thank our sponsors for helping us make this event possible!

Donate to the Christmas Gala Auction!
The UWLC Annual Christmas Gala raises significant funds for our community through live and silent auction sales. The highest bids come from one-of-a-kind, bucket list, or experiential items and activities that offer bragging rights. Bidding wars ignite over items that can't be purchased in stores, such as handmade luxury goods, exclusive trips, private events, or sports tickets with suite access. The second highest bids come from items available in stores but typically considered splurges, like rare bourbon, jewelry, high-end grills, 4K TVs, and other electronics.
We cannot accept timeshares, shop-at-home events, or products and packaging that are used or damaged.
Thank you to our Signature Sponsor
