Story
Join Parents Helping Parents at the 2023 Gala & fundraiser to witness how PHP transforms uncertainty into hope for thousands of families and their loved ones with a disability. This is our annual gathering where our community shares in the celebration of how we've worked together to transform the lives of families with loved ones with disabilities, and helped them toward a more hopeful future. Proceeds from the gala will provide critical resources and information to families raising a loved one of any age, with any diagnosis.
How many people can sit at my table? The tables at the event sit 8 people, so please keep that in mind if you are planning to attend with a group.
