Each year, Rainbow Village hosts a black-tie optional affair at Atlanta Athletic Club that includes a champagne reception and seated dinner with complimentary wine, silent and live auctions, its famed wine wall, and a raffle. Well-known among its supporters as the “We Are Family” Benefit Gala, this year’s event will take place Saturday, September 7, with festivities to kick off at 6 p.m. So much more than a fundraiser for the nonprofit that brings Help, Hope, Housing, and Healing to families experiencing homelessness, the Gala serves as a celebration of the strides made over the previous year and the promise of what’s to come. Presented by Northside Hospital, as the 2024 event nears, Rainbow Village has issued a last call for corporate and individual sponsors. It has also opened sales for individual tickets and tables of ten. In the weeks leading up to the Gala, the nonprofit will also open sales for its yearly raffle – the lucky winner of which will enjoy a 4 Day/3 Night stay for up to four guests in a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom suite at the Millennium Resort and Spa in the Dominican Republic.
“At the heart of the Gala, we will share the mission of Rainbow Village and the impact it has had on families experiencing homelessness for the last 33 years,” said Melanie Conner, the nonprofit’s CEO. “It is deeply meaningful and absolutely imperative to bring help, hope, housing, and healing to families who need it most. In return, we get front-row seats to watch their rise. While the Gala is a celebration, it’s also an opportunity for our supporters – both tried-and-true and brand-new – to gain a deeper understanding of what we do, why we do it, and why so many have come forward to champion our cause – whether as a volunteer, donor, sponsor, corporate partner, faith partner, or prayer warrior. The whole evening will be a mix of shared laughter and tears – all in the spirit of unity, which is why the name ‘We Are Family’ rings so true.”
Tickets, tables, raffle tickets, silent auction items, and both ticketed and non-ticketed sponsorships for the 2024 Rainbow Village “We Are Family” Benefit Gala can be purchased online through the Rainbow Village website at www.RainbowVillage.org.
