We're thrilled you’ll be joining us for the Great Buffalo Debate!

You're not just attending a fantastic event–you're investing in youth leadership and real-world readiness, stronger connections between education, community, and opportunity, and a long-term strategy to build talent, leadership, and community resilience in Western New York.

In 2025, supporters helped reach more than 2,000 students and families across 25+ schools and 30+ community organizations. The results? 97% percent of students felt empowered to drive change, and 99% strengthened their communication skills.

When you support the Collaborative Center for Social Innovation, you invest in students solving real-world problems, building leadership skills, and developing the confidence and networks they need to succeed beyond high school.

Thank you for believing in them. We look forward to seeing you on March 20th!

With gratitude,

Apryle Schneeberger
