The Spina Bifida Association of New York State (SBANYS) is excited to host our 12th Annual Dare to Dream Gala, taking place on Saturday, 11/16/2024 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Troy, NY. The event features include a silent and live auction, live musical entertainment by Jeff Brisbin, hors d'oeuvres, dinner and dessert. Stella Porter of WNYT Channel 13 is returning as our 2024 Honorary Chair. SBANYS will be recognizing various leaders from the community with the You Make a Difference Award, Volunteer of the Year Award, and Memorial Eric Crow Trailblazer Award. We anticipate 200 live guests in attendance. Dare to Dream is a key fundraiser of the organization, welcoming those impacted by Spina Bifida and supporters of the community from across New York State to enjoy an evening that promotes the most pressing needs of the Spina Bifida community: awareness, access, and inclusion. We aim to raise $50,000 for programs and services for the Spina Bifida community.
