Be a Hero for Kids Gala @ Riviera Palm Springs Resort
Apr 16 @ 5:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Join us for this annual event honoring the 2020 Youth of the Year & other Superheroes!

Each year, one exceptional Club member is selected to be Youth of the Year, serving as an ambassador for the Boys & Girls Club of Palm Springs youth as well as a voice for all young people.

Over the decades, these individuals have exemplified the Boys & Girls Club mission and are proof to the impact Clubs make in transforming and saving kids’ lives. Youth of the Year winners have achieved success in a variety of industries, including entertainment, politics, business and sports.

An essential part of our mission is to ensure that every young person has access to quality out-of-school opportunities where they are physically and emotionally safe, healthy and can develop the leadership skills that they need. From providing the basic need of a hot meal, to engaging the youth with fun and interesting programming – our Club is their home away from home during critical after-school hours.

Our Club thrives because it is an absolute necessity within our community and for our future – and our Club exists because of supporters like you! As a self funded organization, people like you are the lifeline of the Boys & Girls Club of Palm Springs.

Please join us on Thursday April 16, 2020 as we celebrate the Club’s Youth of the Year & other Superheroes and to help us raise the much needed funds so that we can fulfill our mission.

Event tickets & sponsorship opportunities are now available!
