ACES Education Foundation’s 16th Annual Gala Will Be A Night To Remember
January 31st, 2019
(North Haven, CT. January 18, 2019) Always one of the most anticipated events of the spring in southern Connecticut, The ACES Education Foundation 16th Annual Gala will definitely be a night to remember. The Foundation’s Gala, the largest fund raising event of the year for the non-profit organization, is going to be held on March 28th from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Anthony’s Ocean View in New Haven. The purpose behind the event is just as special as the evening itself.
“The ACES Education Foundation Gala is the highlight of our year for many reasons,” says Evelyn Rossetti-Ryan, Ed.D., Chief of Marketing and Outreach for ACES and organizer of the event for the Foundation. “The ACES Education Foundation exists to support the educational purposes of ACES; advance the educational programs, plans and goals of ACES; educate the public about ACES mission and the services it offers, and fundraise on behalf of ACES in order to support its programs. This event enables us to carry out programs and activities that otherwise, would not be possible.”
Rossetti-Ryan said she anticipates more than 300 attendees at the gala, including representatives from corporate sponsors, community partners, families, staff, and board members. Every year, the Foundation honors key people and organizations who support ACES’ mission. This year’s honorees include Jeff Hubbard, Key Bank; community arts partners and former ACES Administrators Sharyn Esdaile, Bob Parker, and Bitsie Clark who helped ACES in its efforts to secure the Little Theatre in New Haven; and ACES Educational Center for the Arts alumnus and current WTNH-TV Traffic Anchor Alyssa Rae Taglia.
The ACES Education Foundation, which was formed in 2003, raised more than $113,000 via last year’s gala and of that amount awarded $90,500 in grants and $10,000 “Fund-A-Need” initiatives.
Besides amazing food and drink, the “Night to Remember” is packed full of fun activities such as a live auction, silent auction, and raffle. There are many ways to support the event and its purpose whether someone can attend the gala or not. Tickets are $100 and available online by visiting https://e.givesmart.com/events/c34.
Besides those in attendance, anyone can support the event by donating items such as products and gift baskets or log in and purchase an item to donate by going to the Boscov’s gift registry at https://www.myregistry.com/wishlist/Aces-Education-Foundation-North-Haven-CT/1777421.
