33rd ANNUAL UNICEF GLOW FOR GOOD GALA CALGARY

THANK YOU, CALGARY!

UNICEF Canada’s 33rd Annual Glow for Good Gala has officially concluded — and together, we raised an incredible $1.5 million for children around the world!

The Glow for Good Gala was an unforgettable evening that celebrated creativity, community, and compassion. Guests were welcomed into a stunning art gallery featuring pieces from incredible local artists, with each piece auctioned to raise funds in support of the cause. The night featured a four-course culinary experience, impactful storytelling and an electrifying performance by the Barenaked Ladies, leaving the crowd energized and united by purpose. It was a night that truly embodied the spirit of giving—where art, music, and generosity came together to make a difference.

Thanks to the Calgary community, children in over 190 countries and territories will have greater access to healthcare, nutrition, education, protection, and hope for a brighter future.
