Become an All Hallows' Eve Gala Sponsor

Oct. 30, 2026, 6-11pm, Hilton McLean Tysons Corner

Lift Me Up's annual galas play a vital role in sustaining our operations. Revenues generated by our programs cover just 51% of the myriad costs of our client sessions, including caring for our horses and property maintenance. We budget our Galas to help meet expense shortfalls while providing an outstanding opportunity for individuals, businesses, corporations, and foundations to reach the Great Falls and McLean communities and beyond! Sponsors help us provide and expand upon 6,500 session hours for more than 1,000 Lift Me Up! therapeutic riders and wellness participants annually!


Last year's Gala and Auction Sponsors enabled us to achieve an unprecedented gala fundraising goal. We will be back at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner this year, enabling yet another opportunity for a broader audience reach!
