The event will honor those who support National Service and Volunteerism in Western New York. The emcee for the evening, Katie Gibas, from Spectrum Cable, will host a program to present our second annual "Champions of Service" awards honoring those who support National Service or have made a significant impact in WNY.

We will also hear how a term of service at TSC has impacted the lives of two Buffalo residents.
Proceeds from our annual Sweet for Service will benefit TSC The Service Collaborative of WNY, Inc, a Buffalo based non-profit, 501(c)(3) agency which creates opportunities for all individuals to serve their communities, challenging them to turn their ideals into action and their passion into positive change.
