Moments like these are exactly why we do what we do. 💚

Receiving kind words from organizations like Operation Freedom Paws reminds us that the impact of the Gilroy Assistance League goes far beyond a grant check. It’s about supporting meaningful programs, uplifting our community, and showing people they are seen and valued.

We are honored to support organizations making a difference in the lives of local families, veterans, and individuals every single day. Thank you, Jilliann, for sharing your heartfelt message — and thank you to Operation Freedom Paws for the incredible work you do.

We regret to share that the 2026 Home + Garden Tour & Artisan Market has been canceled due to unforeseen circumstances.

We look forward to bringing this beloved event back in the future and continuing our mission to support youth programs in Gilroy, San Martin, and Morgan Hill.

✨ Making a Difference—Together ✨

Because of the incredible support from our community, and the 2025 Home + Garden Tour & Artisan Market, the Gilroy Assistance League is proud to share that we awarded $47,000 in grants this year to local organizations serving youth in our community. 💙

✨ Gilroy Assistance League at the Women’s Leadership Conference ✨

We were proud to represent Gilroy Assistance League at the Gilroy Chamber of Commerce Women’s Leadership Summit today — an inspiring afternoon filled with connection, empowerment, and community.

This incredible event brings together women from across industries to grow, support one another, and build meaningful relationships that strengthen our community.

Having the opportunity to share our mission — granting hope to children and youth in South Santa Clara County — and connect with so many passionate leaders was truly special.

💛 Thank you to the Gilroy Chamber for creating a space where women can learn, lead, and lift each other up.
💛 And thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn more about what we do — your support makes a real difference in the lives of local youth.

Stronger together. Always.

🌾 Supporting the Next Generation of Ag Leaders! 🌾

Our members Julie and Judy visited the Gilroy High School FFA program, where they were warmly welcomed by Program Director Allyah Perez-Pulido. Allyah shared the incredible growth of the FFA program, what started with just 4 students has now grown to over 30 active members! Students are learning hands-on agriculture, showing livestock, and stepping into leadership roles with pride and confidence.

Thanks to a recent Gilroy Assistance League grant, the program has already made exciting upgrades:
✨ Five brand-new modern fitting chutes to help students safely prep their steers—lighter, easier to transport, and ready for the Santa Clara County Fair this July.
✨ New tools like rakes, wheelbarrows, and shovels to help maintain animal stalls and support daily barn care.

The impact is clear—while only 2 students showed at the fair in 2021/2022, this year approximately 14 students will show cattle, with several others showing sheep. The enthusiasm, growth, and pride among these young leaders is truly inspiring.

💜 The Gilroy Assistance League is proud to support the Gilroy High School FFA and can’t wait to watch these students continue to grow, learn, and shine.
