IGNITE the NITE with Boston GLOW

Are you familiar with Boston GLOW? We're a 100% volunteer run organization that raises money to provide scholarships for young woman in Boston's most under-resourced schools in our most at-risk communities.  Last years Ignite the Nite event raised $30,000 in scholarship funds, and this year our goal is a minimum of $35,000.



This will be the third year of the gala, so we're excited for great success. The last two years have resulted in 8 of our scholarship winners going to college, some of them first exiting the shelter system, procuring safe housing and earning their GED, others finally leaving behind a neighborhood riddled with gang violence to start a brighter future for themselves and their families.



Tickets are on sale now!! I have attached the link here.
