Upcoming Events
Dear Friends and Family,
It is with great pleasure to announce O’mazing O’pportunities will be holding it’s 2nd Sweetheart Gala on February 1st , 2025. Proceeds from the gala will provide financial assistance to students interested in pursuing a career in the construction trades.
The construction industry is facing the need for more talent to fill the many trade disciplines. Although the trades have shown to be a very lucrative opportunity, students entering the trade schools find very limited opportunity to apply for scholarships and financial aid. The proceeds from this event will provide the jump start for students to pursue these new exciting career paths.

A Bit of History
In 2017, my grandparents received treatment from Hospice Buffalo. Hospice Buffalo is a sister organization of Hospice of Metropolitan Erie, Inc., both organizations are not for profit. My family and I will forever be thankful for the great staff that cared for my grandparents, while providing support to myself and family. Raising money for Hospice of Metropolitan Erie will help support other families during their time of need. I’m honored to have had the amazing grandparents that I did and look forward to raising money in remembrance of them.
