“Our Angelversary Gala is planned with the endless and timeless love we have in our hearts for Maggie.”
2018 Angelversary Gala, Friday June 1st
Maggie’s Mission first Angelversary Gala benefiting Maggie’s Mission was held on June 1, 2018, a year to the day Maggie Schmidt lost her battle to Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors. Together, with the help of family, friends and many local businesses, we raised over $130,000! This will help Maggie’s Mission finish funding the first phase of the MRT research project at Memorial Sloan Kettering.
Everyone came together despite a little rain and enjoyed a wonderful, magical evening under the big tent on the great lawn of the Montauk Yacht Club honoring Maggie Schmidt, while fundraising to find cures for rare pediatric cancers and helping local families with expenses after the diagnosis of pediatric cancers.
The event was filled with a sea of people in white, which signified the “Angel”versary theme, while also remembering Maggie, who five years prior had worn white as a bridesmaid in her Uncle and Aunt’s wedding party on June 1, 2013 at the same venue.
Thanks to everyone who supported us!
