One unforgettable night. One powerful mission.
Join us for the Sale Ranch Annual Gala, Where Grit Meets Glam, an elevated evening in Temecula Wine Country benefiting the rescued animals who call Sale Ranch home.
This is more than a beautiful night out.
It is sparkling wine on arrival.
A three-course, elevated fireside dinner by The Plot.
Live music from Wayward Hope.
Entertainment by speed painter Amy Burkman
Auction excitement.
Animal stories that stay with you.
And a room full of people coming together to help keep the hay stacked, the feed bins full, and the residents cared for through the year ahead.
Sale Ranch cares for 90+ rescued animal residents, and our average monthly feed cost is $7,000–$8,000.
Our Gala goal is bold and necessary:
Help us raise $90,000 to support 2027 feed costs.
Because rescue does not end when an animal arrives.
That is when sanctuary begins.
