2020 is our 15th year of offering programs to girls across Long Island. Our plan was to celebrate with all of you at our Ruby Gala, in a spectacular hall with wonderful food, drink, and the buzz of a room full of support and love. However, just as we did with our programming, we had to adapt and create a virtual event. There's still an exciting night ahead, with raffle prizes, a silent and mission auction, and special guest speakers who have taken the time to express what Girls Inc. means to them! At the end of the night we'll have a champagne toast with you all, to thank you for all you've done and continue to do that enables us to inspire girls on Long Island to be strong, smart, and bold. We're so happy you've decided to join us; the last 15 years would not have been possible without you.
