THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE HOLIDAY GALA!

HLF 2024 GALA: Record-Breaking SUCCESS!

We are starting 2025 with gratitude and motivation. In December our annual holiday gala was an epic success! We broke fundraising and attendance records with 255 attendees, reaching over $110,000 overall! We watched in awe as our community rallied around the core principle of the library as a bedrock of civil society. 

 We’re so very grateful to our auctioneer, Senator Mike McGuire who led the crowd to new heights of giving, raising $30,000 for the Buy a Book campaign, in Honor of HLF Co-Founder and Past President, Elizabeth Murguia. We thank all of the evening’s supporters and volunteers, and especially our presenting sponsor, Canopy/RWE. 

And to all of the wonderful patrons who came out to celebrate and ensure the vitality of Humboldt County’s libraries, THANK YOU.
