The NEGU Gala – A Night of Celebration & Inspiration, joyfully powered by Forge, is an unforgettable evening you won’t want to miss! This year, we are honored to celebrate 15 Years of JOY—reflecting on how it all began, the incredible impact made through the years, and sharing an exciting sneak peek of what lies ahead.
Join us as we come together to raise critical awareness and resources for kids fighting cancer and their families. Throughout the evening, you’ll experience heartfelt stories, inspiring messages of hope, and powerful reminders to NEVER EVER GIVE UP. The evening will feature a lively reception, silent auction, delicious dinner, and a one-of-a-kind live auction packed with energy and excitement. To top it all off, we’ll light up the dance floor as we celebrate the lasting impact JOY has—and how it continues to change lives.
Guests will leave feeling inspired and uplifted, knowing their support helps ensure more Courageous Kids and families feel less alone in their fight against cancer. We can’t wait for you to be part of spreading hope, JOY, and creating even more Courageous Smiles!
“Each year, this one special event—and the incredible generosity of those who attend—allows JoyJars to reach thousands of Courageous Kids fighting cancer around the world. But more than that, it opens the door for us to build lasting relationships with these children and their families, providing the long-term support and encouragement they need to Never Ever Give Up!” – Erik Rees, Jessie’s Daddy
