Why your support matters

BAFTX stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity, championing a vision where education transcends financial barriers and unlocks the potential of every talented individual.

Established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2006, our mission is clear: to provide scholarships and educational opportunities to underserved but academically gifted students, empowering them to realize their full potential irrespective of their financial circumstances.

Since our inception, we have proudly impacted the lives of nearly 1,500 young individuals, awarding over $3 million in scholarships. Each dollar invested in education is an investment in the future, driving social mobility, fostering diversity, and nurturing equity. We are not only shaping brighter futures but also fortifying the foundation of a more resilient and prosperous society for generations to come.

Our commitment extends far beyond financial aid. It is a testament to our fundamental belief that every person deserves an equal chance of success.

Together we are forging a tomorrow where talent knows no boundaries and where the promise of education shines brightly for all.

How to support

This year we will not be hosting a silent auction. However, the gala will include raffles (including diamonds!) and a live auction.
