Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis (BGCSTL), in partnership with its Women’s Leadership Circle, will host the highly anticipated Table For Four Luncheon on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at The Ritz-Carlton, St. Louis. This premier St. Louis fundraising event brings together community leaders, philanthropists and advocates to support youth development and empower the next generation of leaders.
Proceeds from Table For Four directly benefit BGCSTL’s SMART Girls program, which serves girls ages 8 to 18 through leadership development, health education and self-esteem building. The program equips young women with the confidence and skills needed to succeed in school, careers and life.
Khalia Collier to Headline Table For Four 2026
This year’s luncheon will feature special guest Khalia Collier, founder of the St. Louis Surge and vice president and chief of staff of basketball operations for the Dallas Mavericks.
A former Boys & Girls Club member, Collier exemplifies the life-changing impact of Club programs. In 2025, she was inducted into the national Boys & Girls Clubs Hall of Fame, recognizing her leadership and commitment to youth development. Her journey—from Club kid to nationally recognized sports executive—highlights the mission of BGCSTL to build Great Futures for all youth.
Celebrating Youth Voices and Achievement
The Table For Four Luncheon will highlight the power of the Club experience through youth voices and achievement. Two outstanding Club members will each receive $1,000 scholarships, recognizing their academic success, leadership and dedication to their future goals.
These scholarship recipients represent the impact of Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis programs, which focus on academic success, character and leadership, healthy lifestyles and workforce readiness.
