The 2025 Capes for a Cause Gala was a smash hit, and due to popular demand, The Gala is back this year!

This will be another unforgettable evening of giving and community, with great items offered up at our Silent and Live Auctions, as well as fun events that will engage and entertain. Like last year, we will be showcasing a curated collection of exclusive items, experiences, and one-of-a-kind opportunities, all available for bidding in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.

Our event this year will be to benefit our family of Champions, the heroes in our story. They are the small youth-focused nonprofits that are doing extraordinary work, but with limited resources. The funds raised during our Auction Gala will go toward supporting our Champions in the form of grants, while we provide additional support in the form of resources and strategic guidance as they further their missions.
