Project Details



Kiss a Pig Gala is a unique and exciting event. The formal affair will host to an evening of dinner, live music, dancing, entertainment, auctions and the infamous pig kissing ceremony. The event’s success is largely due to the support of business leaders and youth competing in a brief fundraising contest to raise the most dollars for diabetes research and programs.

The top candidate fundraisers earn the privilege of kissing the pig at the gala to show appreciation for the animal’s heroic role in diabetes research as the first source of insulin. Event proceeds are used to fund diabetes research, advocacy and community support for all children and adults with type 1, type 2, gestational and prediabetes.
