Something truly WONDERFUL happened at our Gala, and it is all thanks to YOU!
We raised approximately $920,000 of funds to continue supporting our mission of helping the youth of Montgomery County with our essential programs – THANK YOU! These funds will go directly to providing crisis intervention, suicide prevention, mental health counseling, and a safe nurturing home for youth in need. With your generosity, we are able to continue offering our services at no cost to our clients.
The vision for the 2024 Pop Art Gala was brought to life by our passionate co-chairs, Christin Allphin, Laura Everson, and Katrina Savage as well as the outstanding Gala Committee. We are so grateful to this amazing group for their commitment and dedication to make the night so wonderful.
If you would like to learn more or get involved, we welcome you to set up a visit to our shelter and see the impact of your support firsthand by sending a note to development@youthmc.org.
Lastly, we wanted to share all the photos from the event with you to enjoy, share, and save. All the photos are accessible using this link: https://www.sayyestoyouth.org/event-photos
