29th Annual Gala
For more than 125 years, Volunteers of America-Greater New York has been serving individuals and families in need, becoming one of the largest providers of human services in New York City, Northern New Jersey, and Westchester County. Our annual gala is one of our biggest fundraising events of the year.
This unforgettable night will bring together our community of supporters, partners, advocates, and friends to celebrate the powerful impact we create together. This year’s gala carries a message that is pivotal to VOA-GNY’s work:
“Housing is just the start…”
Because when someone walks through our doors, we provide more than just a safe place to call home—we offer stability, dignity, and the support that sparks a new beginning. Your belief in our mission makes this transformation possible.
