2026 Annual Gala: Where the Magic Begins

The Gala Where Magic Begins: Once Upon a Match – The Magic of Mentorship is Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters' signature annual fundraising event, bringing together community leaders, businesses, volunteers, and supporters to celebrate the life-changing impact of mentoring.

Through inspiring stories, a live and silent auction, and mission-focused giving opportunities, the gala raises critical funds to recruit, match, and professionally support one-to-one mentoring relationships for local youth.

Proceeds help ensure more children across Yavapai County have the guidance, encouragement, and opportunities they need to build their biggest possible futures.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Dinner, cash bar, dancing, silent and live auctions, special raffle from Raskin's Jewelers, photos by Christopher Marchetti, and so much more!
