On Thursday, September 22nd, the Wings gala event took place at Gotham Hall in New York City. It was another amazing night, as hundreds turned out to show their support for the fight against ALS. With markets falling and the economy struggling, all of us at Wings were humbled by the generosity of our sponsors, donors, and volunteers. Everyone came together on this special night to truly make a difference in the lives of those with ALS. While donations are still coming in, Wings raised well over half a million dollars that will go into the hands of ALS researchers. Guests also got a chance to see the Diamond, Beier, Spirit, and Humantarian awards presented, as well enjoy great music, food, drink, exciting live and silent auctions, and networking opportunities.
All of us at Wings offer our sincerest gratitude for your support, especially during difficult economic times. Those with ALS have it exceedingly rough, no matter what the markets do, so we thank you for helping to ease their journey.
Finally, Wings gratefully accepts donations all year long. Please click here to see all the ways that you can still make a tax-dedcutible donation for 2011. If you were unable to attend Wings, we invite you to attend the Party On the Park this Friday, September 30th.
