We’re still reveling in the excitement of our 220th anniversary gala, which brought together 420 New Yorkers and raised nearly $2.5 million for our children, youth, and families!

We presented the Champions for Children Award to Catherine Redlich, Rob Horwitz, and the Redlich Horwitz Foundation and the Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton Legacy Award to Jess Dannhauser. Guests were entertained by spectacular performances from former Hamilton cast members Olivia Puckett, Stephanie Umoh, and Morgan Anita Wood, as well as Graham’s Starrz N Motion Cornerstone dance group.

Thank you to the Gala Committee, our Board of Directors, and Graham’s loyal friends and supporters for making this evening a resounding success!

Our youth were educated and inspired as they learned essential skills related to fire and emergency safety! Grateful for our partnership with New York City Fire Department (FDNY).

Yesterday, we partnered with the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) and the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development to host an EMS Community Day at our Manhattanville Cornerstone Community Center! More than 150 children and youth from across Graham’s supports learned key safety skills in honor of National EMS Week 🚒⛑️

FDNY-EMS members led educational sessions on fire safety and calling 911, demonstrated hands-on training for first aid and CPR, conducted ambulance tours, discussed FDNY job opportunities, and more! We even got a special appearance by the Department’s mascots, Hot Dog and Siren.

Thank you to everyone from FDNY-EMS who participated for educating and inspiring Graham’s youth and for the essential role you play in keeping our communities safe every day!

Step inside our dazzling 220th Anniversary Gala, which took place on May 19 at Gotham Hall! The energy was magnetic as 420 guests joined together in celebration and support of Graham's children and families.

We honored Cathy Redlich, Rob Horwitz, and the Redlich Horwitz Foundation with the Champions for Children Award, and honored Jess Dannhauser with the Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton Legacy Award. Ending the night with a show-stopping performance by former Hamilton cast members, the entire evening was a nod to the legacy started by our founders in 1806!

Congratulations to Graham Board Senior Vice Chair & Chair Emeritus, Georgia Wall Gogel, on receiving an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from Wheaton College Massachusetts! Georgia was honored at Wheaton's 191st Commencement ceremony on Saturday for her advocacy for educational equity and child welfare.

In her speech, she encouraged Wheaton graduates to use their degrees to create positive change: “Systemic change... is the whole purpose of our education. To improve our lives and the lives of those in the world around us.”

Georgia has served on Graham’s Board of Directors for more than 30 years, including 19 years as Board chair. Together with her husband, Don Gogel, she has become a transformative benefactor for Graham’s innovative initiatives. Don and Georgia recently provided a $1 million gift to expand Graham SLAM, which was featured in The Chronicle of Philanthropy. We are grateful for her continued support of Graham’s children, families, and communities!

Our 220th Anniversary Gala is happening next week, on May 19! We will be featuring a special live performance by former cast members of Hamilton to honor one of our founders, Eliza Hamilton.

Morgan Anita Wood, who formerly starred as Eliza, will be joining us! In 2019, Wood debuted in Hamilton during the musical’s limited run in Puerto Rico, performing with creator Lin-Manuel Miranda in support of hurricane relief efforts for the island. She has also understudied all three Schuyler sisters.

We’re counting down the days until this special evening!

Last week, we helped celebrate parents-to-be at a community baby shower in the Bronx! More than 350 expecting parents joined together at Bronx Borough Hall to celebrate and learn about helpful parenting resources.

Our teams from O.U.R Place Family Enrichment Center and the Tremont Youth & Family Center enjoyed connecting with both new and familiar faces and sharing Graham’s community resources that are available in the Bronx!
