About the Gala

The Young at Heart Gala is the Boys & Girls Club of Kenosha’s premier annual fundraising event. This elegant black-tie evening brings together community leaders, business partners, philanthropists, and supporters for an unforgettable night of celebration and generosity.

Guests enjoy a formal sit-down dinner, live entertainment, inspiring stories from Club members, and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference through live and silent auctions. Every dollar raised supports BGCK programs that serve over 12,800+ youth each year.

The gala regularly draws over 250 attendees and raises critical funds for after-school programs, sports leagues, summer programming, the food program, and the Basic Needs Closet. It is an evening you will not want to miss.

See you next year!
