Mark your calendars for an evening of enchantment as Reach Society unveils its much-anticipated ‘Wishes and Wonder’ Gala, slated for June 1st, 2024, at the elegant Tsawwassen Springs Ballroom. Promising a night brimming with magic and whimsy, the event aims to elevate the quality of life for families, as expressed by Tamara Veitch, Reach Society Events Coordinator. “This year’s gala,” she shares, “is dedicated to ensuring childhood remains a realm of wonder, where dreams are realized.”
With aspirations to surpass the triumph of last year’s gala, Reach Society extends heartfelt gratitude to REALCO Properties for their continued support as Major Donor, along with the unwavering commitment of Port of Vancouver as Presenting Sponsor, Beedie as Platinum Sponsor and Steve Darling as emcee.
The 2023 ‘Reach for the Stars’ fundraising gala amassed an impressive $160,000, channeling vital resources to support children and youth with diverse needs at Reach Child and Youth Development Society. Reflecting on the previous year’s success, the themed ‘La Belle Vie’ gala transported attendees into a realm of splendor, with characters adorning costumes, including a memorable snapshot of Marie Antoinette alongside Reach Foundation Chair Denis Horgan.
This year’s gala will transport guests into the fantastical world of Alice in Wonderland, complete with vibrant characters brought to life by the Delta Youth Theatre. Attendees will be treated to a captivating live performance amidst an evening filled with entertainment, live and silent auctions, a complimentary welcome cocktail, delectable appetizers, and a sumptuous three-course plated dinner complemented by fine wines.
Early bird tickets are available for $200 until April 15th, with standard ticket pricing set at $250. The silent auction, accessible online prior to the event, invites participation from the entire community.
