Recap of our 28th Annual Gala - March 8, 2025.

Step into a world where philanthropy and celebration unite, showcasing the remarkable strength of community and compassion. With overwhelming pride and gratitude, we proudly announce the exceptional success of our 28th Annual Gala—an evening that transported us Around the World. Our theme this year invited guests to dress up in the spirit of their favorite place, city, country, or heritage, adding an exciting and personal touch to the night. It was truly a fun sight to see, with guests embracing their unique cultural identities and favorite destinations.

This year’s gala marked a record-breaking attendance of almost 390 people, a milestone that fills our hearts with gratitude. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our guests, whose paddles were raised high, we raised an astounding $375,000—breaking our previous fundraising record by nearly $60,000!

Amidst a vibrant atmosphere, our community came together to support a cause that impacts the lives of children and families in need. These funds will directly provide essential counseling services and programs, trainings and necessary renovations to our historic 115 year old building, that make a tangible difference in the lives of many.

As we reflect on the joyous memories created at the gala, let us also honor the lasting impact of our collective contributions. Your generosity ensures that our mission continues to thrive and that we can offer hope and support to those who need it most.

Join us as we look back on an evening overflowing with generosity, camaraderie, and a renewed commitment to our community’s well-being.
