Saratoga Springs, N.Y. – The Wesley Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Wesley Community in Saratoga Springs, will host its annual gala at The Lodge at Saratoga Casino Hotel on Saturday, May 13 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Proceeds from the event will support The Wesley Health Care Center’s Life Enrichment Program. The initiative provides ongoing, meaningful social and therapeutic activities tailored to the capabilities and needs of each Wesley resident so they may continue to pursue their interests and passions.
Presented by The Adirondack Trust Company, with honorary chairs Dave and Stephanie Collins, this year’s Enchanted Evening gala will feature live music by Jukebox Rebellion, tarot card readings by James Joseph Rosenfield from LHB Soul Center, live guest watercolor portraits by Mary Jo Bradley and a silent auction. Dinner and beverages are included in the ticket price.
“The Wesley Foundation Gala is a key event to raise funds for the essential programming for the residents and will certainly make a difference in the lives of those that call Wesley Health Care Center home,” said Wesley Foundation gala honorary co-chair Stephanie Collins.
“We are honored to be a part of this annual celebration and look forward to a fun, festive evening to support the mission of The Wesley Community,” shared Wesley Foundation gala honorary co-chair Dave Collins.
Founded in 1972, The Wesley Community was established as a long-term senior care facility and has steadily grown into a continuum-of-care campus featuring independent and assisted living apartments, compassionate skilled nursing and memory care services.
“As we enter our sixth decade of providing exceptional care for our community’s seniors, The Wesley Community is excited to celebrate our rich history and bright future with this gala event,” said The Wesley Community CEO J. Brian Nealon. “The proceeds from this Enchanted Evening will allow us to continue to provide unique, personalized programming that enhances the lives of our residents and makes our organization truly special.”
