2026 Gala
A Night of Golden Light
We are thrilled to announce the first-ever Golden Gala, an unforgettable evening dedicated to A Night of Golden Light — Honoring a Legacy. Illuminating Hope.

About
This Gala is a formal fundraising event dedicated to continuing the legacy of hope, courage, and compassion inspired by Emily Carpenter. This meaningful evening brings together community, generosity, and purpose to shine a light on the lives of teenagers bravely battling cancer. Through Golden Positivity, we honor Emily’s enduring spirit by transforming loss into love—and ensuring that no teen faces their journey without support, encouragement, and light.
On Saturday, April 18th 2026 doors open at 5:30 PM with cocktails and a silent auction, followed by dinner and a live auction.
Location: Garcia Barn, 9567 Kent Avenue Hanford, CA 93230
As our inaugural gala, this event marks a powerful milestone for Golden Positivity and is set to become our signature fundraiser. Join us in illuminating hope and becoming part of the very first chapter of A Night of Golden Light.
