54th Annual Benefit Auction La Dolce Vita

For more than five decades, Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita Valley’s Annual Benefit Auction has brought the community together for an evening centered on connection, generosity, and investing in local youth. This summer, that tradition continues with the 54th Annual Benefit Auction, La Dolce Vita, taking place on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Bella Vida inside the SCV Senior Center.
Inspired by the beauty and celebratory spirit of Italy’s Amalfi Coast and Capri, La Dolce Vita will transform the evening into a coastal-inspired experience featuring elegant details, lively conversation, and meaningful community connection. Beneath the Italian charm and vibrant atmosphere, the event carries a deeper purpose: supporting thousands of young people across Santa Clarita Valley who rely on Boys & Girls Club programs each year.
Proceeds from the event directly benefit programs that strengthen academic success, mentorship, leadership development, and hands-on learning opportunities designed to help young people grow with confidence and reach their full potential. From after-school academic support and teen leadership experiences to mentoring relationships and engaging activities, Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita Valley provides safe, supportive spaces where youth can learn, connect, and thrive.
Established in 1968, Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita Valley now serves more than 11,000 young people annually across 13 locations throughout the Santa Clarita Valley. For generations, the organization has remained focused on helping youth build confidence, discover their potential, and prepare for bright futures through programs that support growth inside and outside the classroom.
Guests attending this year’s event can expect an engaging evening featuring live and silent auctions, exclusive experiences, curated packages, and opportunities to connect with fellow community members who share a passion for supporting the next generation.
Featured auction items include vacations, gourmet dining experiences, signed sports memorabilia, and a variety of unique offerings.
This year’s event is chaired by longtime supporters Di and Jeffrey Thompson, whose leadership and dedication continue to strengthen the Club’s impact throughout the community. “La Dolce Vita is about celebrating community and creating an evening that feels joyful, welcoming, and meaningful,” shared Di and Jeffrey Thompson. “We are honored to help bring people together in support of local youth and the important work Boys & Girls Club continues to do every day.”
La Dolce Vita reflects more than a summer-inspired theme. It represents a community coming together to invest in the youth, strengthen opportunities, and support brighter futures across Santa Clarita Valley.
