WALNUT CREEK, Calif. - s4story -- Yours Humanly, a global nonprofit that transforms the lives of children in need through the power of education, is holding its 2026 Gift of Schooling Gala, presented by Law Offices of James A. Bach, on Saturday, March 21, 2026, at the elegant Blackhawk Museum, 3700 Blackhawk Plaza Circle, Danville, California. Annual gala attendees include San Francisco Bay Area leaders and advocates in private, public, and nonprofit sectors who recognize the power of shared generosity and who support educational initiatives benefiting children in need.

Proceeds from the gala will fund Yours Humanly's educational projects and programs for underserved — and in many cases, desperately poor — children in Cambodia, India, Nepal, the Philippines, and the United States. Since its founding in 2013, Yours Humanly has served more than 46,000 children, and by extension, their families and communities.
