Dare to Dream with SBANYS!    

Welcome and thank you for supporting the 11th annual Dare to Dream Gala!  

We hope you may find it in your heart to be generous as we pursue our goals to effectively serve all those impacted by Spina Bifida in New York State. All funds raised support the programs, services, advocacy, and outreach benefitting the Spina Bifida community.

Hybrid Event! Join us in person or from a device a near you! Our live Gala event will take place on Saturday, Nov 18, 2023, at 5:00 pm (click here for details).

Bidding! There are two types of auctions: a silent/online auction and a live auction. All baskets are available for viewing on this site.

Live auction! Items in the live auction do not accept online bids and can only be bid on by attending the virtual or in-person gala. The live auction will close during the Gala and winners will be announced there.

Online auction! All bidding -- including during the live Gala -- will be online, and only on this website, which is available on portable devices. No paper bid sheets will be available. Please plan accordingly! The online auction will be open for bidding from Friday, Nov 10th, at 9:00 am until Saturday, Nov 18 at 8pm. "Buy it Now" options will be available only on the evening of the Gala.

Our auctions offer an opportunity for early holiday shopping. Any amount that you bid over the retail value may be tax deductible.

Of note! You do not have to register to browse the auction catalog. However, you do need to register for the auction (and log in) in order to place a bid. Auction registration is separate from the Gala registration here!
