Gala at Evergreen Brick Works raises $1.5 million for WoodGreen's UnMet Needs campaign
On May 8 the Evergreen Brick Works was transformed into an Athenian garden to reflect the 'Midsummer Night's Dream' theme for second edition of the UnMet Gala. Nearly 500 business and philanthropic leaders attended the event, presented by Rogers. Led by gala chair Krystal Koo and co-chair Fernanda Dovigi, the event raised more than $1.5 million to support WoodGreen's UnMet Needs campaign. Incoming foundation board chair John Tory announced that with these proceeds, WoodGreen — which works with communities and policymakers to deliver services to meet the unmet needs of Torontonians — is just $1 million away from reaching the campaign goal of $25 million.
