Fall 2025 Events
This year we will be holding several events for all of our donors and supporters to connect with Alex and Millie and the Align team in lieu of the Gala. Read on to learn all the opportunities in Orange County and the South Bay.
ALIGN PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT
Align's 4th annual pickleball tournament will be held Saturday September 20, 2025.
The event will be held at the Palos Verdes Tennis Club at 3303 Via Campesina in Palos Verdes Estates. We hope you will join us as we play pickleball, have some tasty tacos, frosty margaritas, win some awesome raffle baskets and/or auction prizes, and make new friends while helping those in Align's Life With Hope Sponsorship Program. Monies raised will support children and widows waiting for sponsors - currently there are over 50 sponsorships needed.
WE JUST NEED SIX MORE MEN TO COMPLETE OUR BRACKETS!
To register, just scan the QR codes above or contact Barbara at [email protected] for questions and more information. We can use donations for the raffles and live auction, as well as volunteers the day of the event - again please reach out to Barbara if interested. Thank you for helping at-risk children and widows in Central Uganda.

CHILD SPONSORSHIP EVENTS
We will have child sponsorship events for those who are sponsoring children and/or HIV+ widows in our Life With Hope sponsorship program and those who may be interested in becoming a sponsor. You will have an opportunity to hear from Alex and Millie on how those under sponsorship are thriving, as well as connect with other sponsors.
We will hold two events in the South Bay. The first will be our "Sip and Stroll" event held Sunday September 21 3:30 - 6:30 pm in Rolling Hills Estates at the home of one of the owners of Kellogg Garden Products. Our host will also give us pointers on how to care for your garden in the fall.
The second will be held Wednesday October 1 6:00 - 8:00 pm at a lovely home in Palos Verdes Estates.
**Food and drinks will be provided at both events**
