We are so grateful to announce that this year’s BWB drew more than 1,500 guests who helped us raise a record-breaking $2.5 million to support our mission—to be a Force of Love for kids. Our namesake believed every single child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and we have carried that spirit since day one. Together, we are making great strides to deliver Corey’s Kids even more opportunities. Thank you!
We are honored to have Hannah Florman Fine Jewelry as our Premium Raffle Sponsor. Known for creating custom bridal and fine jewelry that celebrates life’s milestone moments, Hannah’s values of family, community, and connection align perfectly with the Corey C. Griffin Foundation. 100% proceeds benefit Corey’s Kids!
We were thrilled to honor our 2026 Award winners: Jack Connors, founder of Hill Holliday and longtime Boston philanthropist, and the Connors Family will receive the 2026 Thee Mustard Seed Award, for a profound and lasting impact on the Boston community through extraordinary generosity of time, talent, and treasure.
Bill Burke, longtime Headmaster of St. Sebastian’s School, will receive the 2026 Humanitarian Award- recognized for a lifelong commitment to leadership, service, and strengthening the Boston community.
Our 2026 Youth Courage Award Winners will be Avery from Trinity Catholic Academy and Bryce from The Ron Burton Training Village.
