City Chic 2019

Each year, the Boys & Girls Club of Stamford faces new challenges helping our Stamford boys and girls who are living below the poverty level. City Chic is our annual gala benefitting the after school and summer programs of our Stamford Clubhouses.

The Boys & Girls Club of Stamford has been serving the at-risk children of Stamford for over 90 years:
1,600 Stamford at-risk boys and girls served each year
450 children served daily through afterschool program & summer camp
65% of our members come from households earning less than $15,000/year
Over half of the children come from single-parent homes
The Club raises 95% of its operating budget through private donations and fundraisers such as City Chic
Our 2019 City Chic Gala is being presented on The Palace Theatre Stage

NBC Sports will be presented the Guardian of the Community Award
EY will be presented the Corporate Partnership Award

The very chic, Cuban-themed cocktail party will be a major production starring delectable creations from David's Catering, accompanied by signature drinks. The event includes an impressive award presentation, live and silent auctions, and great entertainment from our Club members.
