04.27.2024 – MVHM&G Anniversaries Celebration Gala
The Colonial Dames of America is excited to announce a white-tie gala will be held Saturday, April 27, 2024, at the Colony Club in New York City, and will feature The Bob Hardwick Sound. This event is the first such gathering of the Society since 2019 and will mark the official kick-off of the yearlong MVHM&G Anniversaries Fundraising Campaign. All proceeds from the gala will benefit the campaign.
As part of the CDA Annual Weekend activities, the gala is more than a fundraiser. It is a celebration of our Society, of all that we mean to each other, all we have accomplished in the past, and all we hope to accomplish together in the future. We hope that you will join us for this special evening of cocktails, dinner, dancing, and fun.
If you are unable to attend, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to the Anniversaries Fundraising Campaign. Contributions of $475 and greater will be recognized in the gala program. Chapters or individuals wishing to support the gala may want to consider underwriting a portion of the festivities. Please email gala chairman Anna Rich at [email protected] to learn more about underwriting opportunities.
