On Wednesday, June 18, i-tri hosted a Sweet 16 Gala at Longhouse Reserve in East Hampton. It was a beautiful evening-- the rain held off and the sun came out just as the evening began.
The event began with i-tri alum leading guests through the gardens at Longhouse and to four different i-tri "Experiences." Power poses, visualization, affirmations, and the power of words all brought awareness to the details of the program that is now in its 16th season.
Under a tent on the DeKooning Lawn, guests had a chance to bid on art by local female artists, luxury trips and experiences, and to purchase tickets for a chance auction. Beer (donated by Springs Brewery), wine (donated by Channing Daughters), food by Silver Spoon catering, music, and a photo booth kept everyone busy.
If you missed the chance to bid on our silent auction, it is still open until Wednesday June 25 at 9pm. Please visit i-tri Sweet 16 Gala Auction | The American Fundraising Foundation to bid.
Our event was wonderful, but we fell slightly short of our financial goal and WE NEED YOUR HELP TO CLOSE THE GAP! Please click the donate button below or at the top of the page to make sure that every girl we are working with this season gets across the finish line.
