2025 Recap

On behalf of The Pierce Family Foundation, we extend our sincerest thanks for joining us at the Green & Gold Gala – a night benefitting our dear friends at Camp One Step. Your presence and support helped make the evening not only a night of fun but also a record-breaking success in our mission to support children and families battling cancer.

The atmosphere was electric with excitement as guests tried their luck at blackjack, roulette, craps, and poker. We were serenaded by the timeless sounds of The Rat Pack, enjoyed a delicious dinner, open bar, and experienced the thrill of our silent and live auctions. Special highlights of the night included the adopt-a-volunteer program, the Kate Spade Purse Pull, the lively Spin to Win, and the unforgettable paddle raise and paddle DROP — which sent one lucky guest on a dream trip to Ireland!

Thanks to your generosity, we are proud to share that we raised over $200,000!

We invite you to relive the magic of the evening by visiting our photo gallery page.

We also hope to see you soon at our upcoming Golf Outing on June 15th — be on the lookout for registration details coming your way shortly!

Once again, thank you for being a vital part of our community and for standing with us in this heartfelt cause. Your support truly makes a difference.

Warm Regards,

The Pierce Family Foundation
