Thank you to everyone who joined us on October 1, 2026 at the Four Seasons Hotel Boston.

Every dollar goes to the people who need us the most: older adults who want to stay in their own homes and need help to do it, and the caregivers who care for them. Your gift means someone has the care and support to stay safe at home, and a caregiver has somewhere to turn.

Congratulations and thank you to our 2026 honorees! Their work has made a difference for older adults and families across Boston.
