We suggest bidding and donating from your phone and streaming the event from another device, such as a smartTV, tablet, or laptop.
The livestream can also be found on the online auction website or by searching for “Page Robbins Virtual Winter Gala” on YouTube. If you’re not comfortable with YouTube and/or livestreams, we suggest testing it out sometime this week on the device you plan to use. If you run into trouble, give us a call, and we’ll help troubleshoot.
Important Reminders!
If you are gathering with anyone outside of your household, please practice social distancing, wear masks, and avoid using shared serving utensils. We ask that you gather with care, always keeping the most vulnerable in mind. You may not live with a vulnerable person, but you probably work with, are friends with, and grocery shop with those who do. Also, if you are serving alcohol to guests in your home, you are responsible for ensuring that it is served responsibly and that all of your guests get home safely. Let us know if you have any questions about this.
We are so excited for you to be a part of this special day! The winter gala is the largest fundraising event of the year. Page Robbins needs your support now more than ever. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out.
What is the purpose of the Gala?
The Winter Gala is Page Robbins’s largest single fundraiser and is a vital source of funding. Page Robbins offers unique and uplifting weekday care for adults with memory loss. We also provide free support and social services for caregivers. Participants at Page Robbins have good days filled with music, art, games, reminiscing, fellowship, and fun, while their caregivers get a break. Client families pay half the cost of care, and donations from generous people like you make up the other half. We must raise $700,000 to keep the cost of care affordable for families. You can help families affected by memory loss have their Best Days Ever!
