Over 600 guests joined us on the evening of Saturday, December 7th for our 28th Annual Vera House Foundation "New Beginnings" Gala at the Oncenter.  The evening included an exciting silent auction, wine pull, jewelry raffle featuring a diamond tennis bracelet donated by Cazenovia Jewelers, an elegant sit-down dinner and entertainment with the Silver Arrow Band.

Our 2019 Honorary Chairs Meg O'Connell and Eric Allyn were recognized for their unwavering commitment and support of Vera House and our community. We're thrilled that the 2019 "New Beginnings" Gala raised over $146,000 to support the programs and services of Vera House, Inc!
