Thank you to all who attended The HOPE Program Gala: Empowering Prosperity! It was a powerful evening, celebrating over 40 years of commitment to empowering New Yorkers to build sustainable futures. Together, we recognized three extraordinary honorees:
- Randall E. Powell and Infinite Horizons: Co-founder, Principal, and CEO of Affordable Housing Developer and HOPE Workforce Development Strategic Partner
- Lauren Samuel: HOPE Board Member and Former Board Chair Barclays VP, Chief Controls Office, Market Regulatory Group
- Willdan: Nationwide professional technical and consulting services, transitioning communities to clean energy and a sustainable future
Watch as we celebrate our commitment to empowering prosperity for New Yorkers, and honor the remarkable champions who make it possible!
The room was filled with energy provided by PIX11’s Monica Morales and inspiring remarks from HOPE Program Graduate Candida Herbin.
We are deeply grateful to every guest, sponsor, and partner who made this evening a resounding success. Together, we are building a stronger, brighter New York for all!
