The Augusta Health Foundation’s second Gala-to-Go event successfully raised $98,000 in net proceeds to support renovations on the farmhouse on the Augusta Health campus.
The event was held on Friday, April 30. Instead of gathering at a large event, gala-goers were literally on the go—they picked up a gourmet three-course meal for two from the drive-up entrance of the Heart and Vascular Center, and then enjoyed it while socially distanced.
“We are grateful for the many individuals and couples who participated in the Gala-to-Go,” said Tami G. Radecke, CFRE, Executive Director of the Augusta Health Foundation. “More than 400 meals, boxes of truffles, baguettes and other goodies in an Augusta Health Foundation burlap bags were picked up at the event. Thank you to our generous sponsors, participants and donors. We look forward to gathering and celebrating together again in the future.”
