Attending a Healthcare Gala that Raised Over $3.5 Million

I recently had the privilege of attending the Chesapeake Regional Health Foundation Annual Gala to help raise funds in support of healthcare, a signature event for over two decades.

Through the Gala's enduring legacy, they have been able to raise over $3.5 million, investing in the mission and vision of our healthcare through generous contributions through philanthropic donors in our community.

This is a testament on how our unwavering commitment can play a pivotal role in essential programs to help build a brighter future for our patients.

Thank you Angelo Reyes for the personal invite and to everyone who joined in making this evening truly special.

Here are a few pictures that captured this magical night below.
