Description
The 24th Annual Have a Heart Gala is our cornerstone event! Typically held in February, this year we are choosing to hold the event in May to better allow for the comfort and safety of our guests in light of the Covid-19 pandemic. On May 21, 2022, around 450 guests will join us virtually and in-person to celebrate the work that Housing Forward has accomplished over the past year. Notable parts of the Gala will include a cocktail hour, silent auction, raffle, dinner, paddle raise, and dancing. This year is set to be our biggest and most successful gala yet!
