ABOUT THE NIGHT
Sips for Scholars is a new signature event from GB Charities, bringing together a great crowd for an unforgettable evening at Hayfields Country Club.
Enjoy an open bar, an incredible dinner, live music, fresh rolled cigars, and a special live auction, all while supporting scholarships for deserving students across the Baltimore area.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
❋ DINNER AT HAYFIELDS
Come hungry and ready to enjoy the evening!
Your ticket includes appetizers, a full dinner buffet, a chef-attended pasta station, and a carving station, with food served throughout the night.
❋ LIVE MUSIC BY CHRIS DILLER
Chris Diller will provide live music throughout the evening, bringing the perfect soundtrack to a night of good food, drinks, conversation, and celebration.
❋ OPEN BAR
Beer, wine, and liquor are included with every ticket for the duration of the event.
No drink tickets and no additional bar tabs. 21+ only, please.
❋ FRESHLY ROLLED CIGARS
Guests can enjoy fresh cigars hand-rolled on site throughout the evening, another special touch for a perfect fall night at Hayfields.
❋ SPECIAL LIVE AUCTION
The live auction will be one of the highlights of Sips for Scholars, featuring a collection of special experiences and packages with one important purpose: raising scholarship dollars for GB Charities students.
Every ticket brings another guest into a room full of people who make this work possible, and every seat filled helps fund tuition for a hardworking GB Charities student.
❋ AN AWESOME NIGHT WITH FRIENDS & FAMILY FOR A GREAT CAUSE
where your ticket goes
Since 1991, GB Charities has put more than $5 million toward tuition and supported over 1,300 students.
Right now we're sponsoring well over 100 students, first grade through high school, at accredited faith-based schools across Baltimore.
These are hard-working families whose children are ready to thrive at a great school, and tuition is often the only thing standing between them and that classroom. Every ticket sold helps close that gap for another student.
sponsorships
Sponsorships aren't just for companies. Families, groups of friends, and individuals sponsor with us every year, and it's one of the most direct ways to fund a scholarship. Sponsors gain visibility in front of a room full of Baltimore business owners and community leaders, plus a real connection to the students you're supporting.

We'd love to have you join us! Grab your tickets, round up your people, and we'll see you at Hayfields on October 16th.
Thank you for supporting our scholars.
