Gala Committee

https://www.sjrotary.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/gala25_registration_page-scaled.jpgThe Gala Committee plans and executes our single biggest fundraiser of the year—the Rotary Gala that supports capital grants to local organizations that support vulnerable populations in our community through programs to youth, seniors, veterans, and the unhoused. Our connections to one another and in our community is the reason for the beautiful Gala celebration. This year’s theme is “Kaleidofête,” a dazzling event filled with brilliance and color.

Enjoy wine, a signature cocktail and passed hors d’oeuvres, while immersing yourself in  illuminated ambience and décor. A curated Silent Auction awaits you with a plethora of treasures. Afterward, a delectable dinner will be served, and our Live Auction has incredible packages for our generous bidders. Then, dance the night way to celebrate all that Rotary San Jose does for our community. For those who want to continue the celebration, the Aji Lounge at Signia will have music to enjoy until 11 pm.
