Description

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Capital Area is proud to present the 5th Annual Great Futures Gala:  Be A KID Again! on Friday, October 18, 2024 at the Albany Capital Center.

The event is Dine Around style with several local chefs offering small plate samples and vying for the Top Chef Award.  Guests attending the event will enjoy samples of the cuisine and beverages, interact in a multitude of fun childhood games, chance their luck at a wine pull, bid on auction items, and celebrate the accomplishments of the Club made possible by the generosity and support of our gracious community partners!

All proceeds from the event will directly support our teen programs that uplift, inspire, and prepare the 750 teens we serve each year with the skills and resources they need to thrive academically, socially, and personally.  By providing a safe haven for youth every day after school and during the summer, we aim to develop character minded individuals who graduate from high school and become productive citizens within our community. 

In appreciation for your donation, you will receive pre-event marketing through social media posts, inclusion in our monthly marketing newsletter, logo recognition on our gala webpage, and item recognition on our online auction platform.  Further, all donations will be recognized on multiple electronic signage locations throughout the event, in our event day program, and signage alongside the item at the event.  

Thank you for your consideration!
