We did it! Thanks to your support.

I knew last night’s gala was going to be different – all virtual, lots of personal stories, lots of LIFT memories – and I did not know whether LIFT’s “village” – friends, family, colleagues, board, volunteers, partners – would rally together in a generous way to acknowledge our 25 years of service. Although I so missed seeing you all in person – anyone who knows me knows I love a good party – I am SO THRILLED by the success of the evening and hope you found celebrating with us gave you a sense of hope and promise for the future.
 
What can I say but THANK YOU!  We raised an unprecedented $600,000 and counting to benefit New York children and families confronting issues at the heart of their well-being in Family Court.

We were honored to pay tribute to our visionary board member Bill Silverman and feature moving remarks from U.S. Senator Cory Booker. We so enjoyed hearing from so many colleagues, staff, clients, volunteers and donors who understand what we do and why we do it. I am so proud of what we were able to share!

As we look ahead to all we can accomplish in the next year, there are still many uncertainties and challenges facing unrepresented litigants in Family Court. There is still time to deepen our impact for families facing personal crises. With your support we can continue to work for equal access to justice for all New Yorkers, one family at a time.
