Sponsorship Information
We would not have had a successful gala without our sponsors! Thank you to those that supported our event!
Why is it so important to raise funds for Friends of Residents through Fall Gala sponsorships? A contribution of any amount is giving back to our work on behalf of long-term care residents in North Carolina. We have been able to do what we do since 1987 because of the generosity of donors like you.
