YMCA GALA
INSPIRING GENEROSITY
Since its inception, the Y’s signature fundraising event has raised more than $1.2 million to benefit families within our community. This elegant evening will celebrate charitable giving at the YMCA by showcasing the Y’s impact in our community and the generous donors who help to make our mission come to life each and every day. Funds raised will benefit the Y’s scholarship assistance program, which helps to ensure that no one is turned away from the YMCA due to the inability to pay.
This elegant evening includes:
- A Cocktail Hour, Dinner, and Open Bar
- Silent and Live Auctions
- Raise the Paddle Giving Opportunities
- Exciting Raffles
- Live Entertainment and Dancing
Join us on February 25, 2023 at Bolingbrook Golf Club!

FUN FOR ALL
Purchase a Cash Raffle Ticket
Cash raffle tickets are on sale now! Tickets are $25, with three amazing prices - $2,000, $1,000, and $500! Only 400 tickets will be sold.
Winners will be announced at the YMCA Gala and do not need to be present to win. This year’s Cash Raffle is generously sponsored by Grundy Bank.
Donate an Auction Item
A great way to help ensure the 2023 YMCA Gala is a success is by donating an item that can be included in the evening’s Silent or Live Auctions. Throughout the evening, Gala guests will have the opportunity to bid on exciting trips, sporting event tickets, one-of-a-kind experiences, and more!
Donate a Bottle of Wine
At this year’s YMCA Gala, guests will have the opportunity to purchase a wine cork for $25 for an opportunity to take home a bottle of wine valued between $15-$100. We are hoping to collect 125 bottles of wine for this year’s Wine Pull.
