New York City Gala

January 2024

ALL RISE will inspire children & youth to become responsible citizens

by engaging them in activities that encourage them to reach unlimited possibilities.

It was a perfect evening in New York City for the 2nd Annual All-Star Evening – New York Gala. The soiree was held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City. The breathtaking architectural design of Cipriani Wall Street created an elegant backdrop for the guests which included professional athletes, leaders in the sports world, family, friends, and fans. Dressed in their finest cocktail attire, guests enjoyed passed hors d’oeuvres, a delicious meal, strolling through and bidding on the popular silent auction which included signed sports memorabilia from Aaron Judge and other professional athletes who support the Foundation. The program was energetic and informative, being led by MC’s Matt Soeth and Paul Loefer. Attendees also heard from Aaron, as well as Patty, his mom and President of the Foundation, sharing special stories about the work the Foundation continues to do. The live auction included several game-day experiences with Aaron, as well as the favorite, ‘Hey Aaron, can we have a catch?’ offering children the opportunity to play catch and have lunch with Aaron.

Businesses and individuals responded in a big way to support the All-Star Evening. Proceeds from the event support ALL RISE programs and initiatives such as: Aaron Judge Baseball Camps that focus on developing positive character traits; awards and incentive programs in schools and local organizations to encourage and reward academic improvement and excellence; student registration fees at Leadership Development Conferences and Camps; engagement in Citizenship Programs and school assemblies to improve the culture and climate of school campuses; ALL RISE Mini-Grants; and opportunities for students to participate in the Aaron Judge Book Club.

We hope you will join us in supporting Aaron and his mission.
