Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Annual Event, Be a Part of Something Bigger, with special thanks to our 2025 Annual Event Chairs: Ellen & Alan Rosner and Whitney & Grant Kuvin.
We were joined by over 400 friends and partners for an evening celebrating all we’ve accomplished over the past year. Attendees had the chance to watch a video that showed what a day in the life of the agency looks like and the scope of services we provide. It was a testament to the impact we can make in our community when we all work together.
We’re still riding the wave of momentum — and there is still an opportunity to “Be A Part of Something Bigger”. Now through April 30, every dollar you donate will be matched —- up to $30,000 — thanks to the generosity of the Theodore and Pauline Cohen Charitable Trust.
