Our Annual Gala Event
Big Brothers Big Sisters is bringing new energy to its annual gala with The BIG Celebration! The night will highlight the impact of mentorship with heartfelt stories and community spirit—all while raising funds to support youth in Erie, Niagara, and Cattaraugus counties.
Join us at The Powerhouse in Buffalo for an unforgettable evening of cocktails, dinner, auctions, and inspiration as we honor the life-changing power of mentorship. When the Gala winds down, the Bash turns up! Open bar, sweet and savory bites, music, and nonstop fun—the perfect afterparty to keep the celebration going.
