Big Buddy Major Partner
On August 10th, 2023, our Platinum partner Montana Group - specialists in large-scale catering and event management - generously supported the inaugural Big Buddy Night Out, by providing all the delicious food and wine for the evening.
Held at Auckland Town Hall, this glamorous black tie gala dinner raised over $130,000 to help us continue matching boys with Big Buddies-positive male role models who guide and support them.
The followed this up by hosting the Big Buddy Garden Party at Puketutu Island, which was a thank you event for our community as well as launching our new Group Programme for teenage boys.
Giving back to the community is at the heart of Montana Group’s values. Whether through sponsorship, volunteering, or in-kind contributions, they actively seek ways to support local causes.
With extensive experience managing events across Auckland and Waikato, Montana Group is committed to delivering outstanding food and service for every occasion. Their expertise encompasses multi-day conferences, gala dinners, large-scale school lunch productions, and daily dining for over 4,000 university and high school students. Through exclusive partnerships with Hamilton City Council and Tātaki Auckland Unlimited, they ensure each event is executed flawlessly.
We are deeply appreciative of their partnership and the incredible effort they put into supporting Big Buddy and our mission.
