5th Annual Gold Gala

Join us at the 5th Annual Gold Gala!

We are back and better than ever! Join us on Thursday, November 12, 2026 at The High Five GR for an unforgettable evening of celebrating Black excellence in philanthropy! Get ready to dress to impress in your ballroom attire as we come together to support AQUME Foundation!

Our annual Gold Gala Fundraiser is an upscale event where you can enjoy a night of elegance, education and excitement. Indulge in delicious food and drinks, network, and become a part of the Black philanthropic history in West Michigan.

By attending this event, you'll not only have a fantastic time, but you'll also be making a difference in our community. 100% of the funds raised during the Gold Gala will go towards supporting our local initiatives, grant making, and programs that benefit our communities of color. Remember, AQUME Foundation is a very young grassroots organization and the reality is that the needs of our community are pervasive and far outweigh our foundation’s existing resources, but we are committed to doing all that we can to bring forth our liberation! And we need your help!

Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to have a memorable evening while contributing to a worthy cause. Mark your calendars for the 5th Annual Gold Gala Fundraiser and get ready for an evening of joy, celebration, and giving back!
