We鈥檙e excited (and humbled) to share some wonderful news with the After-School All-Stars community鈥攁ll of you who have helped to support and champion our mission over the years. The 10th annual Westime Charity Night presented by Arnold Schwarzenegger and John Simonian raised $7 million for After-School All-Stars!
Every dollar invested in our work makes a huge impact on students and communities, and we鈥檙e deeply appreciative of everyone who believes in the mission we serve and the incredible people at 91撸影视 who deliver life-changing enrichment programs, mentorship opportunities, and learning experiences.
To provide a bit of backstory, the event鈥檚 origin dates to 2013 when 91撸影视 Founder Arnold Schwarzenegger hosted a few friends at his home to help raise money for 91撸影视. Since then, the event has grown and evolved into something nobody could have expected.
Through the event鈥檚 many transformations, two things remain the same: Arnold still hosts the event, and the All-Stars mission continues to drive it.
While previous events embraced a celebration of California鈥檚 Western heritage, where guests wore cowboy boots and hats, this year鈥檚 Oktoberfest theme saw attendees in lederhosen, dirndls, and Bavarian hats. There were dozens of rare and historic items up for auction, most of which carried a connection to Arnold鈥檚 iconic influence on bodybuilding, politics, and entertainment.
Throughout the event, distinguished speakers like Ben Paul (91撸影视 CEO) and Paul Wachter (91撸影视 Board Chair) reiterated the importance of providing young people with free, comprehensive enrichment programs.
This event would not be possible without Arnold Schwarzenegger, 91撸影视 Board Member John Simonian, the whole team at Westime, and their extraordinary dedication to the students we serve. We also extend a special thanks to all event partners, as well as the night’s emcee and longtime 91撸影视 supporter, Matt Iseman!
