The Angel Gala 2024

THE ANGEL GALA 

Presented by Purpose Planning is commemorating its 9th consecutive year of celebrating the children of America's fallen military, peace officers and firefighting professionals! Keenly focused on "Positives & Possibilities," the upcoming event features a moving and powerful program with show-stopping child performances and inspired stories. Hailed as one of the most magical events of the year, the evening also includes a gourmet meal prepared by the Broadmoor's world-renowned chefs, music, dancing, live & silent auctions, a red carpet experience and much, much more.

"The Angel Gala is an emotional journey from the moment you arrive. It's the only time you can be surrounded by the children and families who are part of the mission, as well as the sponsors and supporters who make it all possible. These kids are our hope for the next generation as they know the price of freedom and safety. As an active duty Army officer, even I need to be reminded sometimes."

US Army CPT Angie Veith, USOA , Mrs. Colorado 2020

"The Angel Gala is an amazing event with big heart!  We love the mission of helping children of our fallen heroes. Watching these kids perform really is something special. Thank you for the incredible work you're doing!  We're proud to partner with you! "

SPECIAL NOTES FROM OUR ANGEL FAMILES

"Everyone at this event treated me with such kindness and patience. Throughout the event, everyone ensured that my entire family and I were comfortable. Although public speaking is usually a nerve-wracking experience for me, everyone at the gala was so understanding and kind that I did not feel as worried as I usually would be. This event was a memorable experience, and I am so grateful to have been a part of it."

Brianna Goodloe, Angel Recipient, 2023 Keynote Speaker & Performer

"All the staff and crew were so kind and welcomed our family kindly. We arrived at CO very late at night, and it was a long flight, but Brandy treated us more than just participants in the event. She was with us no matter what during the entire trip and gala program. All the workers respected us and greeted us with hugs, encouragement, and support. Our experience of being invited to the Angel Gala was unforgettable, and it helped us heal from our loss. I am sure my late husband is thankful to all the donors and Angels of America's Fallen from heaven."

Sun Goodloe, Angel Mom & 2023 Angel Gala Performer 

"My daughter and I love attending the Angel Gala! It is such a wonderful event where the community gathers to celebrate our children, the children of the fallen military and first responders. It is amazing to see the support for the kids and the families, and spend an evening together where the focus is on the kids and their accomplishments. My daughter performed a special dance to honor her dad at the 5th annual Gala. We had the owners of her dance studio and also her dance mentor and her family attending. My daughter's dance mentor also joined her on stage as part of the special dance, and it was an amazing experience to see them dance together. Performing at the Angel Gala is such a confidence booster for the kids and such a special opportunity. The organization also produced a video with our story. This video is such a treasure for our family, as it captures my daughter's relationship  and growth with her dance studio, her dance mentor, and also with the founders, Joe and Shelli Lewis. This video also became a healing tool for me personally. After sharing the video with friends and family, it became a conversation starter and I was able to talk to a lot of people who I have not been in touch with since my husband died. At the Angel Gala, they really showcase the impact of the organization in these children's lives. Also, the red carpet interviews elevate this event, and again give the performing kids such a special moment to be able to be highlighted there and talk about their experience."
