2026: RAISING THE BAR

Just 125 people. One unforgettable evening. A record-breaking $2.8 million raised for the community. This year’s event marked the most successful fundraising goal in PURPOSE history, bringing the event’s cumulative impact to nearly $13 million over six years.

Hosted at the breathtaking Law Estate Wines in Paso Robles, unforgettable moments unfolded one after the other, including $360,000 raised from a single experience, before an inspiring Fund-a-Need generated an astounding $1.3 million in just minutes.

More than a record-breaking fundraising night, PURPOSE 2026 was a powerful reminder of what can happen when a community comes together with generosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to creating lasting change in San Luis Obispo County.

HEALTHY SMILES. STRONGER FUTURES.

PURPOSE 2026 Fund-a-Need will support the launch of Dentistry in School, a project with Tolosa Children’s Dental Center designed to bring essential dental care directly to local children in San Miguel. By meeting children where they are – in their schools – the project will help expand access to critical dental services for families in the community. Click HERE for details about this project.
