5th Annual Little Hearts Gala

April 11 @ 5:00 pm - 10:00 pm

We would be honored by your presence at the

5th Annual Little Hearts Gala

Saturday, April 11, 2026

Please join us for a truly extraordinary evening as we celebrate Levi’s Golden Birthday at the 5th Annual Little Hearts Gala.
This year’s event will shine brighter than ever as we honor the incredible impact of Levi’s Legacy and the community that continues to carry his light forward. Guests will enjoy an evening filled with inspiration, connection, and a few golden surprises along the way.
Highlights of the night include an inspiring guest speaker from Children’s Hospital Colorado, the debut of our 2026 Levi’s Legacy video, and our always-popular silent auction, paddle raise and head or tails.
Every dollar raised directly supports Levi’s Legacy’s mission to walk alongside families facing the challenges of congenital heart defects (CHDs) — and the dedicated medical professionals who stand by their side. Through financial assistance, vital research support, and compassionate care, Levi’s Legacy continues to be a golden ray of light and hope for those navigating life’s fiercest storms.
Join us for a radiant evening of generosity, joy, and love as we celebrate Levi’s Golden Gala — where every heart shines bright.

“Together, we are stronger than the storm.”
