Bring your friends and join us for a spectacular night to help change the lives of at-risk youth

The Little Black Dress Gala is a great space for the arts. Allowing people from all walks of life to come together.  This event has managed to bring Vancouver communities together under one roof.  It’s amazing to see so many people come together and celebrate an evening dedicated to the arts and fashion but most of all to support single moms and fundraise for youth programs by Help Change My City.

I attended Help Change my city’s Little Black Dress Gala last November.  What a classy cultural event! I thoroughly enjoyed the music, performances and inspirational testimonials.  Thank you Help Change My City for the impactful contributions you are making towards positive change in our city.

Nearly 9 years ago, new to the city, I sat in a coffee shop with a group of young professionals discussing ideas on how they could make an impact on their community. The very first Little Black Dress Gala left a lasting impression with me. The story that sparked this idea is incredibly moving and not one for the faint of heart. Over the years and 7 events later, the legacy of the LBD gala has evolved from one story, to a powerful voice for many women and children. The gala itself is absolutely flawless. It is one of my favorite evenings of year, between the fashion, arts, and the opportunity to mingle with many. However, beyond the little black dresses and colorful lips, there is a community of people both men and women that honor victims experiences, and give a voice to many, who at times may have found it difficult to find their own. It is a beautiful night out to celebrate giving back, and we know that often the most beautiful things in life are those that cannot be seen. #giveback
