A Memorable Evening for a Meaningful Cause: Our 3rd Annual Gala Supporting St. Jude

On Saturday evening, we had the honor of hosting our 3rd Annual Gala in support of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital—and what a night it was. The event was a true celebration of community, compassion, and generosity, bringing together partners, colleagues, friends, and family for a cause close to our hearts.

The evening featured live music by a talented saxophonist, curated specialty cocktails, and an exceptional catered dining experience. The atmosphere was lively and joyful throughout, a reflection of the spirit and generosity that filled the room.

Thanks to the incredible support of our community, we received 20 outstanding auction items donated by a wide range of individuals and organizations—including vendors, suppliers, customers, employees, and friends. In addition, we were deeply moved by several heartfelt monetary donations made during the evening. Every contribution, large or small, played a vital role in the success of this event and in advancing the mission of St. Jude.
