Last month, more than 220 guests walked the red carpet at the Westin for an unforgettable evening of connection, compassion, and community.
From heartfelt reunions to new friendships formed over shared stories, the Cayford Gala was a true celebration of what Forward Foundation stands for — bringing people together in moments that matter.
Thanks to the generosity of our guests, sponsors, and volunteers, we raised over $60,000 through direct donations, sponsorships, galas tickets, silent auction bids, and the 50/50 raffle. Every dollar directly supports meaningful, connective experiences for young adults facing life-limiting illnesses; experiences that remind them they are not alone, and that they are so much more than their diagnosis.
💎 Still time to shine!
Our 1-carat lab-grown diamond necklace raffle is still open, with only 200 tickets will be sold. One lucky winner will take home this stunning piece just in time for the holidays. Every ticket sold helps us bring more sparkle and more connection into the lives of the recipients and families Forward Foundation supports. The draw is on December 3, so grab your ticket today!

And a huge thank you to our incredible sponsors who ensure that our gala is a successful fundraiser, so we can act quickly when young adults with life-limiting illnesses need us most!
