Events

Each year we help more than 5,000 people in Upstate New York rise above the challenges of poverty with a safety net to help them start over. This would not be possible without the enthusiasm of our donors and partner organizations to raise awareness and celebrate the lives being changed in our communities. Throughout the year you will find events that offer opportunities to get involved and support those we serve. Below is a list of our main events throughout the year:

Annual Benefit

Save the date for the 5th annual VOA benefit and silent auction on March 6, 2025 at the Harro East Ballroom. Be the light for brighter futures.
