Evening of Champions Gala

Relive the Magic. Celebrate the Impact.

Asset 3

One night, one community, endless impact.

The Evening of Champions Gala is a celebration honoring the individuals and organizations recognized as Champions of the Community by Raleigh Wealth Solutions throughout the year. Launched in 2023 by Brian and Jill Raleigh, the Champions of the Community initiative began on the radio to spotlight those who make our community a better place to live and work. The gala brings together all of these Champions for one unforgettable night, dedicated to raising awareness and funds for these remarkable difference-makers. It’s an evening filled with delicious food, drinks, music, and entertainment, including a live auction featuring once-in-a-lifetime trips and unique experiences. Last year's gala included a magician, DJ, photo booth, and more, ensuring the evening was truly memorable.

The inaugural 2024 Gala was a tremendous success, raising over $238,000 to support 10 local nonprofits.

A Lasting Impact

All funds raised during the Evening of Champions Gala go directly to the nonprofits enabling them to continue their vital work. The ripple effect has been remarkable, from feeding families and supporting education to saving animals.
