Last Thursday, October 24th, we hosted our annual Fall Fest in New York City. As always, the event was a big success due to the amazing group of attendees. Over 100 new and old friends of Mission Santa Maria gathered at The Chelsea Bell for a cocktail party, silent auction, and to hear more about our programs in Ecuador. We love our annual Fall Fest because it gives us a chance to spend time with some of the people that make our work possible here in Ecuador, as well as share our work with new friends.
Most importantly, our event helps raise funds for our all of our projects and ongoing programs. This year, we exceeded our fundraising goal, with over $60,000 raised for our programs in Ecuador. Thank you to everyone that made Fall Fest such a success!
And a very special thanks to our Fall Fest event committee and Fall Fest sponsors!!
