Please consider a donation of any size to help underwrite the costs of LiLY's highly anticipated New Year’s Tea Party. This annual, signature event brings together older adults (LiLY participants as well as the public) for an event designed to celebrate life and connections.

For many older adults, LiLY's Tea Party is the major outing of the holiday season. The party features live music, games, prizes, elegant dining, and community-building and will be held on January 9, 2026 at 1PM at The Forum, Columbia University.
