The Gilroy Assistance League:
A Long History of Friendship
and Dedication to Children
Written By Amy McElroy
Since 1959, the Gilroy Assistance League (GALs) has been an organization of hard-working women helping
children. The non-profit originally began as the Children’s Home Society, assisting young women and their
babies through pregnancy and the adoption process. As community needs changed, GALs changed along
with it—now raising funds through the Home and Garden Tour and other events to support the needs of local
children in a myriad of ways.
