Join Youth Villages for Red Kite Nite, an unforgettable evening of celebration, possibility and inspiration as we honor the incredible achievements of the youth in our programs. Together, we'll highlight the remarkable milestones made possible through the strength of our united community.

The evening will spotlight stories of lives changed through the LifeSet and Intercept programs, celebrating the incredible impact we’ve made together. We will honor former Youth Villages Board Member, Mark O'Donnell, President and CEO,  Big Brothers Big Sisters of Eastern Massachusetts, for his extraordinary dedication to youth mentoring.

By joining us at this year’s gala, you’ll bring us closer to our goal of making LifeSet^TM accessible to every young adult in need. Together, we are transforming lives and reshaping what’s possible for youth across the Commonwealth.

Don't miss your opportunity to help youth soar to new heights.
