Boys and Girls Clubs of Whatcom County to host fundraising gala event

Posted

The Boys and Girls Clubs of Whatcom County (BGCWC) is hosting its annual fundraising gala and auction at 5 p.m. on Friday, April 28 at Silver Reef Casino Resort.

The gala and silent and live auctions will be held in the resort’s event center. The red-carpet event will have a red meat and seafood dinner with dessert. 

Last year, the virtual event raised over $373,000 for BGCWC, according to the nonprofit’s event announcement. 

“Funds raised at this event are critical in helping us accomplish our mission,” said Heather Powell, CEO of BGCWC. “We could not continue to do whatever it takes without the support of our community.”

BGCWC was founded in 1946 for students, especially those furthest from an equitable education, to reach their highest success. The organization has clubhouses in Blaine, Bellingham, Ferndale and Lynden.
