Annual Gala

Let's celebrate! 

High Hopes is thrilled to announce we will be hosting Bonds of Strength at the Big Barn Bash Saturday, June 11th.  Join us as we once again transform the indoor arena into an elegant and inspirational evening of mingling, a sit-down catered dinner and dancing to the award winning, high-energy sensation ETA Music.

Strength comes from many inspirational sources. At High Hopes, we’re proud of the Strength through Learning, Strength through Community and Strength through Philanthropy we see each and every day.

Strength through Community is because of YOU. Our generous Event Sponsors provide critical financial resources to ensure High Hopes delivers the highest quality of programs and services.

We ask our vibrant, philanthropic business community to partner with High Hopes for our annual fundraiser, the Big Barn Bash. The Bash is a vital opportunity to raise awareness of our mission in the broader community. It is your support and belief in our mission that provides our participants with social, emotional and physical opportunities they can’t experience in their day to day lives.
