North Texas Studio 89 Gala

Best Buddies Champion of the Year is a competitive fundraising campaign that unites and recognizes leaders of inclusion in local communities nationwide.

Champion Candidates commit to raising funds and awareness for Best Buddies throughout their campaign. Our Champions advocate for the Best Buddies mission and will generate countless opportunities for friendships, jobs, leadership development, inclusive living, and family support. At the Best Buddies Champion of the Year celebration, we honor the Champions’ collective impact and name the ultimate Champion of the Year!

Gala attendees can also look forward to unforgettable mission moments with our participants and their Buddies, as well as silent and live auction items and it’s not a Best Buddies party without some dancing! So get your disco-dancin’ shoes on and join us, November 22nd!

We look forward to celebrating 35 years of inclusion with you by our side.
