KEEN's annual gala is a night to celebrate KEEN and raise money for KEEN programs. Our annual gala provides necessary funding to keep activities free of charge for families and ensure all St. Louis youth have access to fitness, fun, and friendship.
Our 2026 KEEN Gala - Roaring Into Our 20s - is the signature fundraising event for KEEN St. Louis. Hosted by our Board of Directors and a dedicated committee of advocates and supporters, the KEEN Gala will raise funds to support a full year of recreational programs for children with disabilities. KEEN's mission is to empower youth with disabilities and impact volunteer coaches through participation in free, non-competitive, one-on-one programs of physical activity and fun, supporting the overall health and well-being of all participants. Without the generous support of KEEN St. Louis volunteers, donors, and guests like YOU, this would simply not be possible.
Thank you for attending our KEEN Gala: where we are celebrating fitness, friendship, and fun for youth with disabilities.
