Fundraising Gala at the Loeb Boathouse, Central Park, New York
October 10, 2019
Our fourth gala was held at the Loeb Boathouse, Central Park, New York City on October 10, 2019. It was a wonderful evening by the lake and many of the guests enjoyed a fabulous starlit ride in a traditional Venetian gondola.
This year MCF funded close to 240 partial vocational scholarships, partnered with World Pediatric Project to send seven surgical teams to St. Vincent reaching 376 Vincentian children, and funded the purchase through Hands Across the Sea of books for 13 primary schools and 5 secondary schools in St. Vincent, reaching an estimated 5,500 children; providing remedial reading kits reaching an estimated 400 children; and provided two literary specialists, reaching some 19,300 children.
