The GO Gala is more than a fundraiser — it’s a powerful night of community, celebration, and inspiration.

Each year, GO Campaign brings together an extraordinary group of changemakers, philanthropists, artists, and advocates who believe in a better world for children. Guests leave not only moved by the stories shared on stage, but energized by the sense of purpose that fills the room.

From heartfelt performances to moving tributes, the GO Gala shines a spotlight on the Local Heroes GO Campaign supports — grassroots leaders transforming their communities from the inside out. These are the educators, mentors, health workers, and visionaries working on the frontlines of change, giving vulnerable children the opportunities they deserve.

Funds raised at the Gala directly fuel this work, allowing GO Campaign to say “yes” to more life-changing programs — from safe shelters and clean water to education, mental health services, and vocational training. The impact is real. The momentum is growing. And it all starts with one unforgettable night.

What is the GO Gala?

2025 go gala recap

Our 18th Annual GO Gala at The Maybourne Beverly Hills was an unforgettable evening of community, celebration, and purpose. Together, we raised over $1 million—a record-breaking milestone—to support vulnerable children around the world.

We proudly honored the Wrexham AFC Foundation and its ambassadors, Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, whose work harnesses the power of sport to uplift young people and strengthen communities. Their commitment to investing in local change mirrored GO Campaign’s belief in supporting Local Heroes—leaders creating lasting impact from within their own communities.

Throughout the evening, we were reminded that every child we serve is more than a number—they are individuals with names, dreams, and futures worth investing in.

Because of you, GO Campaign continued to connect urgent needs with extraordinary Local Heroes around the world—turning compassion into action and impact that lasts.
