A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for this year’s Spring Benefit Bash! It was truly a magical evening of warmth, fun, and community festivity. This annual gala was a phenomenal team effort, and we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Gabrielle Koelbel for her extraordinary leadership over the last 4 years. As a fellow committee member noted, her rare combination of kindness, intelligence, and fortitude, alongside the incredibly dedicated Gala Committee, made the night a spectacular success.
Our Sincere Thanks to the Gala Committee: Namita Bhatt, Marina Bibawi, Ashok Eastman, Danielle Halpern, Paola Henao, Steve Hersh, Tracey Horst (a shoutout to her for her incredible harp playing and singing!), Nina Kentsis, Antonia Kousoulas, Yohan Lim, Kerry McAleer, Zainab Miller, Amit Pasman, Claudia Salazar, Ann Scobie, and Alyssa Sweet.
An event of this scale truly “takes a village”. With over 40 volunteers helping from set-up to break-down, the spirit of the Bronx Science community was on full display. Beyond being a celebratory night for parents to connect, it was a significant fundraising success that will directly benefit our school and students. We are also grateful to our talented volunteer photographers, Kevin Gallagher and Eryn Hatzithomas, for capturing the evening perfectly.
