Raising The Bar Gala
You raised the bar and the game at this year's POIC + RAHS Gala! From the lightning-fast ticket sales to the unprecedented turnout, from Sponsorship support on a level we've not seen, and tremendous giving in the room, it was an evening to remember, resonating with the powerful message shared by our keynote speaker, Pulitzer Prize-winner Mitchell S. Jackson.
Just as Mitchell's words urged us to view our work in a new light, your generous contributions have empowered us to revise, reimagine, and raise the bar for the level of service towards our mission. Because of YOU, we met our goal of $500,000, enabling us to not only invest in our dedicated staff but also to expand our efforts to meet the ever-growing needs of our community while ensuring its safety.
Our very own Rosemary Anderson graduate Nazir Moore highlighted why we got together last night: to support young people like him, to guide them with the wrap-around care that no other organization can replicate. POIC + RAHS will keep on doing the work thanks to the way you showed up and supported our Portland community.
Thank you.
Your unwavering belief in our cause and generosity have set us on a path of revision and transformation. Together, we are committed to creating a more promising future for all. Thank you for Raising the Bar!
