Join us for an unforgettable evening of purpose, connection, and impact at the Martinez Foundation Gala, a signature fundraising event dedicated to strengthening communities across Colorado.

This elegant evening will bring together community leaders, business partners, families, and supporters who believe in creating opportunity, dignity, and hope for those who need it most. Guests will enjoy a beautifully curated experience featuring dinner, storytelling, live raffle opportunities, and meaningful moments that highlight the lives changed through our work.

All funds raised through ticket purchases, donations, sponsorships, and auction participation directly support the mission of The Martinez Foundation — empowering youth, supporting families, and uplifting seniors through impactful, community-driven programs.
