On May 22, our dearest friends and supporters gathered to celebrate our 3rd Annual Measures of Hope Awards. In addition to participating in a special art activity that highlighted hope, guests enjoyed performances from the Martha Graham School and the Martin Wind Quartet (featuring Paquito D’Rivera), as well as moving speeches from our staff and honorees: Taryn Bird on behalf of Kate Spade New York, Manny and Patricia Oliver, and Nick Parisi on behalf of Webster Bank. We’d like to thank all of our guests and sponsors for their support. Check out the gallery below to relieve the joy and the magic of Measures of Hope.
