​Gratitude’s 2026 West Coast Gathering is an intimate multi-day convening of the Gratitude community designed to foster thoughtful dialogue, deepen relationships, and engage with ideas shaping impact investing. Over the course of several days, participants will connect with peers, hear from leading voices, and explore opportunities to collaborate and invest together.

​We will begin with a partial day on Wednesday, October 7th, followed by a full day of programming on Thursday, October 8th, and a half day ending with lunch on Friday, October 9th. The majority of our event will be spent on site at the beautiful Asombrosa venue.

​The West Coast Gathering will take a more retreat-style approach, bringing together our community for meaningful connection, learning, and exploration. Agenda to come soon.
