Blanco Y Negro Awards Gala Goes Virtual

AWARDS GALA + DAY OF THE DEAD
#ByN2020

Blanco y Negro is going virtual! Our annual fundraising event will be online this year & will feature speakers, a silent auction, entertainment, and fun for all! Also - a special tribute to Day of the Dead -- honoring those that have gone before us as a part of our virtual fundraising event.

Our special events, including Cinco de Mayo Fiesta, Scholarship Golf Tournament & Blanco y Negro were cancelled this year due to the pandemic. These events are an important part of our fundraising efforts and help keep our programs and services going.

Traditionally, the Guadalupe Centers Centennial Celebration Blanco y Negro Awards Gala, our annual black-tie event kicks off Hispanic Heritage Month festivities in Kansas City. The gala provides the Guadalupe Centers and its supporters an opportunity to honor outstanding individuals and institutions who have contributed to the growth and development of both the Guadalupe Centers and the local Latino community.

Please support us by registering now for this event, browsing and bidding on our silent auction items, purchasing event offers and/or texting "BYN2020" to 816-670-4659 to make a donation.

You can follow us on Facebook for event reminders and updates at @GuadalupeCentersKC. Mark your calendar! Hope to see you at this year's Blanco!
