Join us for the tenth annual St. Jude Hope & Heritage Gala

Saturday, April 25, 2026 at Cipriani | 55 Wall Street

Guests will enjoy cocktails, dinner and dancing in support of the St. Jude mission: Finding cures. Saving children.®

The St. Jude Hope and Heritage Gala honors the inspiring legacy of Danny Thomas, founder of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and celebrates his Middle Eastern heritage. Danny founded ALSAC (American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities) in 1957 as the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The generous contributions of the Middle Eastern community, both then and now, have been integral to fulfilling Danny’s vision that “no child should die in the dawn of life.” All proceeds from this event benefit St. Jude, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.

We are delighted to have distinguished entertainment for the evening that will include world renown Broadway and Grand Egyptian Museum Soprano Shereen Ahmed, international violin virtuoso Maria Bassil, an ensemble from the magnificent New York Arabic Orchestra, and our amazing dance party maestro Cyril Nehme.
