2026 Governor's Black Tie

The Nevada Governor's Black Tie event stands as one of the state's premier and longstanding philanthropic celebrations. Established in 2000, this multi-day gathering brings together distinguished guests, community leaders, and supporters committed to improving the lives of children, women, and at-risk families across Southern Nevada. To date, the event has helped raise more than $30 million to support local nonprofit organizations dedicated to serving vulnerable communities. 

Hosted in partnership with the Olympia Companies Charitable Foundation, the annual event features a formal black-tie gala, exclusive entertainment by nationally recognized performers, dynamic live and silent auctions, and a premier multi-day golf tournament at the Southern Highlands Golf Club-solidifying its reputation as Nevada's premier fundraising experience. 

St. Jude's Ranch for Children is honored and deeply grateful to be selected as one of the benefiting charities for the 2026 Governor's Black Tie event. This prestigious partnership provides critical support for our mission to transform the lives of abused, neglected, and homeless children and young people in Southern Nevada. Being included alongside other impactful nonprofits reflects the event's enduring commitment to uplifting organizations that bring meaningful change to the community.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to the Olympia Companies Charitable Foundation, Governor Lombardo, event partners, and the generous donors and attendees whose dedication helps make our work possible. Together, we are building brighter futures for the children and families who need it most.
