The Service League Gala & Benefit is a black-tie optional, community-wide annual event that raises money for children in need in Cherokee County and honors a community member with the presentation of our annual Heritage of Hope Award. The night consists of dinner, music and dancing, community mingling and a silent auction.
The Service League of Cherokee County donates a portion of the evening’s proceeds to a chosen non-profit organization working to improve the lives of children in our community. We are pleased to announce that the beneficiary of the 2025 Gala & Benefit is Safe Kids Cherokee. Safe Kids Cherokee County, led by Cherokee County Fire & Emergency Services, is a local coalition dedicated to preventing injuries in children.

Presented by
Heritage of Hope Award
Each year at the Gala and Benefit, the Service League presents the annual Heritage of Hope Award. The award honors a member of our community who is a role model for compassion, service, and for giving hope to children in need in Cherokee County. Recipients must live or work in Cherokee County.
Nominations are accepted from community members in the months prior to the Gala and Benefit and will be vetted by a committee who weighs each nominee using a rubric to ensure fairness to all nominees. The Executive Board of the Service League of Cherokee County selects a Heritage of Hope Award recipient after careful review of the committee’s recommendation, nominations and scores, and the recipient is announced at the Gala and Benefit. This year’s nominations are now closed. For additional information, please contact heritageofhope@serviceleague.net.
