Sparkles of Hope Gala Recap: An Evening of Inspiration and Impact

On May 29th, the Samaritan Center hosted our annual Sparkles of Hope Gala, a night filled with celebration, community, and commitment to making mental health care accessible for all.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we are thrilled to share that the event raised over $23,000 to support vital mental health services right here in our community. These funds will help open doors for individuals and families seeking the care and support they deserve.

A Night to Remember

Throughout the evening, guests enjoyed great food, fun entertainment, and meaningful connection, all while championing a cause that impacts so many lives.

 

We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this evening possible:

  • Our Sponsors, whose generosity helped bring this event to life

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Our Raffle Donors, who provided exciting prizes for guests to enjoy

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Our dedicated Gala Committee Volunteers, whose time and talents made every detail shine

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Our DJ and trivia host, Matt Haines, for keeping the night lively and entertaining

 

  • And most importantly… YOU, our generous community of supporters

Together, We Sparkled. We Shined. We Found Hope.

The Sparkles of Hope Gala is more than just a celebration, it’s a reminder that when we come together, we can break down barriers to mental health care and offer hope to those who need it most.

We invite you to continue this journey with us. If you missed the Gala or want to relive the spirit of the evening, be sure to watch our 2025 Center video, Finding Hope to see the impact your support is making.

Thank you for believing in Samaritan’s mission. Together, we are building a community where mental health services are available and accessible for all.
