Our 50th Annual Gala: November 1, 2025, 6-11 p.m.

Lift Me Up's annual galas have played vital roles in sustaining operations for more than a decade. This year is no exception! Revenues generated by our programs cover just 51% of the myriad costs of our client sessions. caring for our horses, and property maintenance. We've budgeted our Golden Gala to help meet our expense shortfalls while providing an outstanding opportunity for area businesses to reach the Great Falls and McLean communities and beyond!

We anticipate this year's 50th Anniversary Golden Gala and Auction sponsors will enable us to achieve an unprecedented gala fundraising goal. The change in venue to the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner means an even broader reach for your organization's brand. Join us today to help provide and expand upon 6,500 session hours for more than 1,000 Lift Me Up! therapeutic riders and wellness participants annually!
