The Bowery Mission's 2027 Valentine Gala

You’re invited to join us for The Bowery Mission’s 28th Valentine Gala on Thursday, February 11, for a special evening honoring more than 150 years of compassion, hope, and lives transformed across New York City. Thanks to the generosity of donors and dedication of volunteers, we’ve provided meals, shelter, and programs that help our New York neighbors facing homelessness and hunger find healing and independence. As needs across our city continue, we remain committed to caring for one another. We look forward to gathering with you to celebrate transformed lives and the enduring call to love our neighbors.

Please consult your investment or tax adviser regarding payment of bifurcated donations to gala events. We are unable to accept $15,000 table purchases through Donor Advised Funds. Any donation that receives no benefits in return can be made from a Donor Advised Fund. If you have any questions, please contact events@bowery.org.

Since the 1870s, The Bowery Mission's iconic Red Doors have stood as an archway of welcome, care and healing for New York neighbors facing homelessness and hunger. Our Annual Valentine Gala raises vital funds for meals, shelter, and our transformative residential programs that help men and women step into renewed independence. We also invest in the next generation through Mont Lawn City Camp, offering year-round enrichment that culminates in an unforgettable summer in the Poconos.

"I never expected to need The Bowery Mission but it was there for me when I needed it."
