Annual Gala
Support the 30th Annual Toast to our Towns Gala!
Each year, more than 600 business leaders, government officials, community volunteers, and philanthropists come together to celebrate the amazing work being done by individuals and organizations in our region.
Your sponsorship, at any level, will directly support the operations of Truman Heartland Community Foundation and help us to continue to support private giving for the public good. Your support is greatly appreciated.
