Prepare for a memorable evening at our gala event space, Cipriani Wall Street, NYC’s #1 rated venue. This event unites celebrities, supporters of the Cristian Rivera Foundation, and D.I.P.G. warriors. It all begins at 6:30 p.m. with a red-carpet reception. Your seats include hors d’oeuvres, a five-hour open bar, dinner, an award ceremony, and a moving video presentation. Additionally, there will be live and silent auctions with one-of-a-kind items and experiences.

Through table sales, auction items, ads in our program, sponsorships, and donations, our 17th Annual Celebrity Gala will raise money to support the clinical trials at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital. The foundation also provides monetary support to families impacted by D.I.P.G. and uses funds to spread awareness about this horrible disease.

The Cristian Rivera Foundation is one of the nation’s largest financial supporters of research and family support for D.I.P.G. To date, the Cristian Rivera Foundation has donated well over four million dollars ($4,000,000.00).
