We are honored to recognize two incredible champions of mental health advocacy at our MHA “Inspiring Change” Dinner this May.
Chris and Danielle Koch of the New Era Cap Foundation will accept our "Community Impact Award" celebrating their unwavering commitment to expanding mental health resources and support across Western New York. Their leadership, generosity and dedication continue to make a meaningful difference in our community.
We will also proudly present the "Advocacy Award" to Mark Laurrie of the Niagara Falls City School District, in recognition of his deep devotion to youth mental health and his tireless efforts to ensure students feel seen, supported and empowered.
This evening promises to be one to remember, featuring exciting auctions, a beautiful sit-down dinner, powerful testimonials and moments that inspire hope and action. Most importantly, it’s an opportunity to come together in support of Mental Health Advocates of WNY and the vital work happening every day in our community.
Sponsorships for the MHA “Inspiring Change” Dinner on May 7th are now available. If you wish to support, contact Sara Schumacher at [email protected].
