2024 Spring Gala, Fire & Ice
It was another record-breaking night for our Spring Gala Committee with nearly $250,000 raised at the fabulous Fire & Ice event! Thank you to all the generous attendees and sponsors who made it so successful for Almost Home Kids and to Lakesha & Jim Rose for brilliantly hosting and stewarding our program throughout the evening. Special thanks to Samuel Slennett for giving a wonderful parent testimonial and to our three awardees, Keith Veselik, MD, Christine Sajous, MD and Eric Maul (Maul Paving) for everything they do for AHK. The organizing committee led by Erin LaMantia and Stacie Gannon outdid themselves by bringing the Fire & Ice theme to life in so many creative and thoughtful ways.
We were treated to some wonderful music during the cocktail our thanks to the talented Art for Hope Foundation musicians and the dance floor was packed thanks to the Standing Room Only Orchestra. Extra special shout out to our sponsors Baker McKenzie, Executive Construction, Forvis, Neuco, Mullarkey Associates, Wintrust, Hub, USI, Phoenix Closures and to the amazing creativity of Andrew Ushakov and the volunteers who stepped up in a big way.
