Love for Literacy 2020

About Our Event

The sixth "Love for Literacy" gala will be on Saturday, February 15 at Birmingham's Regions Field Ballroom & Club Lounge. This event is children's literacy non-profit Better Basics' signature fundraising event. All proceeds help support Better Basics' academic intervention and enrichment programs for struggling students in Birmingham area low-income communities.

The 6 p.m. - 9 p.m. evening event will include a cocktail hour featuring a complimentary signature cocktail and seated dinner surrounded by the lights of the Birmingham skyline.  Guests can bid on an array of silent auction items and participate in a Wine Pull, Bourbon Toss and Ring Bling. Live jazz music will accompany the mingling and dining. Hosted by WVTM-TV's Stephanie Walker and Eunice Elliott, the program includes inspirational guest speaker Lacy Gunnoe.
