ANNUAL GALA

Annual Gala


Our annual fundraising gala is a celebration of progress, resilience, and community impact.


This signature event brings together supporters, partners, and change-makers to highlight the strides we've since 2005.


Through inspiring stories, impactful presentations, and community collaboration, this event shines a light on the ongoing work and future projects that help create lasting change.


The gala serves as both a reflection of past achievements and a launchpad for continued efforts to uplift our community.

SPONSORSHIP

It’s time to gather in support of the individuals and businesses served by MESO. This year is particularly special as we celebrate 20 years of empowering entrepreneurs and transforming communities.

THE POWER OF YOUR SPONSORSHIP

Your sponsorship is more than just a contribution—it’s an investment in dreams, resilience, and transformation. It will help us honor our journey while enabling us to create lasting change in the lives of those we serve. Together, we can open doors to opportunities, foster hope, and empower individuals and communities to thrive.


By becoming a sponsor, you’re not just supporting an event—you’re becoming part of a movement - a movement that sustains vital initiatives, amplifies voices, and builds bridges to

economic equity and empowerment. Your support makes all the difference.

SPONSOR ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Sponsors will receive prominent logo and brand recognition at the event, social media acknowledgment on MESO’s platforms. Additionally, program sponsorships include year-long brand visibility on all program materials beginning September 1, 2025.
