What a night! ✨
Our 2025 RIVER FUND Gala brought together friends, partners, and neighbors to celebrate our MISSION and COMMUNITY.
We were enormously proud to honor Jill, Harry, Sadie, Fletcher, and Ivy Kargman — a family whose unwavering commitment to service continues to strengthen the fabric of our city.
From Board Member Harold Ford, Jr.’s call to turn care into ACTION, to Mary C. Tiedemann Graduates Aaishah and Alisha Mahadeo sharing what it means to feel safe, seen, and supported, every moment reminded us why RIVER FUND’s work matters.
And as Swami closed the evening: “The best part of who we are is in the caring of each other.”
Cherished partners and dearest friends Ray Klonsky, Joey Vaughan, Lydia Fenet and Bronson VanWyck and everyone at VanWyck helped to it a most memorable and meaningful evening...
It is with the generosity of our entire COMMUNITY, RIVER FUND continues to meet families where they are - helping them move beyond the lines of poverty with dignity.
Together, we look ahead to our next chapter: building the RIVER FUND Community Empowerment Center, a permanent home where Our Mission will continue to grow stronger.
