About this Event
Join us on Saturday, March 8, 2025, at the Mellwood Art Center for an unforgettable evening celebrating the I Rise Program and community. The New Directions team deeply appreciates your support of our Family Self-Sufficiency program; every contribution is essential.
This year’s gala will honor the incredible journeys of our participants as they continue to make strides toward self-sufficiency. With 230 residents currently enrolled, we help families navigate the “benefits cliff” by saving a portion of rent increases in escrow for their transition to market-rate housing or homeownership.
We recently celebrated a milestone as four participants completed the program, achieving their goals and securing employment without relying on cash assistance. Their achievements were recognized during a visit from HUD’s FSS team on August 27th, and we’re excited to highlight their journeys at the gala.
Expect:
- Inspiring Speakers sharing their journeys
- Captivating Performances to uplift and entertain
- Delicious Cuisine for a memorable dining experience
- A Vibrant Atmosphere for connection and celebration
The I Rise Gala celebrates hope and community, where we uplift one another. Mark your calendars—we can’t wait to celebrate with you on March 8, 2025, at the Mellwood Art Center!
