All proceeds support student success across Southeastern Wisconsin. Cocktail attire requested.

Awards Presentation

Our awards presentation celebrates the glowing achievements of our students and volunteers. This year, four students will be honored with scholarships recognizing their exceptional determination. We will also recognize one volunteer who represents the guiding light of our dedicated volunteer community. Come share in the brightness of our awardees as they light up the room with their stories, spirit, and inspiring drive.
