Celebrating Impact

Established in 2015, The Heroes Gala is Right To Play’s annual must-attend signature fundraising event, honoring outstanding heroes who are doing extraordinary work to help children and youth rise above adversity.

The event brings together more than 900 community leaders in business, sports, entertainment, government, and philanthropy. An impactful evening of inspiration and hope, the event includes honoring three prestigious awards including a Corporate, Athlete and Youth Hero. These dedicated honourees invest their time and talents to protect, educate and empower children and youth in Canada and around the globe.

The event has been awarded numerous awards over the years. Most recently, the Heroes Gala was recognized in 2022 as one of the top 10 benefit events in the U.S. and Canada by BizBash Magazine.

*Note: the 2024 Heroes Gala will be held in October, 2024. Exact date TBD
