Join Us for the 10th Annual Big Impact Gala!

Step into an evening of elegance, festivity, and inspiration at the 10th Annual Big Impact Gala, benefitting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwestern Illinois! On Saturday, November 8, 2025, The Regency in O’Fallon will come alive with our Mentoring Masquerade: Unmasking Potential, where guests will enjoy a festive masquerade atmosphere, live entertainment by Steve Shininger, and inspiring stories from our Bigs and Littles.

This year, we’re excited to introduce the VIP All-Access Party Pass—limited to 30 guests! Plus, there will be plenty of opportunities to win big through our silent auction and raffles—so come dressed to impress and don’t forget your masquerade mask!

Be part of the magic. Help us unmask potential!

The Gala is more than a night of celebration—it’s a chance to make a real difference. With your support, we aim to raise $100,000 to help children on our waitlist unmask their full potential through one-to-one mentorship, providing guidance and opportunities that keep kids in school, out of trouble, and on the path to success.

Don’t miss the premier charity event of the region and join the ranks of high profile partners such as U.S. Steel Granite City Works, Ameren Illinois, Holland Construction, J.F. Electric and the Southern Illinois Police Chiefs Association. All funds raised support life changing one-to-one mentorship proven to keep kids in school, out of trouble, and on the path to post-graduate success.

So grab your ticket, or better yet, reserve a table for you and your friends for a night that’s sure to be full of surprises!
