The Gala will be followed by an after-party dance celebration with a celebrity DJ.
Hearts of Gold (HOG) is a not-for-profit organization that works to improve the lives of 450+ children and 375+ mothers annually at three Manhattan facilities: Icahn House East, LLC; Semiperm, created by Settlement Housing Fund; and Nazareth Housing. Sadly, these are women and children who have never had positive influences in their lives, and over half of the women and children at these shelters are victims of domestic violence. Hearts of Gold makes a significant impact by working with these shelters and women to address the core problems of homelessness, which include disintegration of extended families, domestic violence, joblessness and a lack of both education and basic life skills. The programs we provide focus on advancing from homelessness to the shelters to permanent housing, with the ultimate goal of repairing shattered lives.
