As we welcome 2026, the 100 Club of Buffalo is proud to reflect on a remarkable 2025 and share a look ahead. Thanks to the incredible support of our community, our events and initiatives continue to honor and support the heroes who keep Western New York safe.
66th Annual Hero Awards Dinner
One of the first major highlights of the year was the 66th Annual Hero Awards Dinner at Samuel’s Grande Manor—a heartfelt celebration of bravery, selflessness, and dedication. Maryalice Demler of WGRZ-TV served as emcee, bringing energy to an evening that honored extraordinary acts of courage by local first responders and civilians. The Hero Awards recognize individuals who go above and beyond, often at great personal risk, and this year’s honorees reminded us all of the impact these heroes have on our community.
2025 Sporting Clay Event
The 2025 Sporting Clay Event saw strong participation and support from the community. The event was a success and highlighted the continued dedication of attendees to support the 100 Club’s mission.
25th Annual Golf Tournament
Summer brought the 25th Annual Golf Tournament, with excellent turnout and enthusiastic participation from first responders. The tournament raised significant funds to support our programs and demonstrated the ongoing dedication of the Western New York community to honoring local heroes.
5th Annual Cigar Social
The 5th Annual Cigar Social in August was our most successful yet. With strong attendance and impressive fundraising results, the evening further strengthened support for the 100 Club of Buffalo and its initiatives.
