Presented by: Community Impact at Columbia University
What: This year’s Benefit celebrates Community Impact’s 40th anniversary, traditionally known as the ruby anniversary. As CI enters its fifth decade, we continue to exemplify the qualities of the ruby: passion for our mission and devotion to our community. We will also recognize our Circle of Champions, including prior CI Making a Difference Honorees as well as community service leaders.

Dress Code: Festive attire
Why: The Benefit is Community Impact’s most important fundraising event of the year. We gather to celebrate our volunteers, program partners and participants, and esteemed members of our community. The auction is a highlight of an evening that will help raise vital funds to support our mission to serve disadvantaged people in Upper Manhattan through high quality programs, and to provide meaningful service and leadership opportunities for volunteers. With the effects of the pandemic still ongoing, it is more important than ever that CI’s Adult, Youth, and Emergency Food programs thrive so our volunteers can continue to help advance the public good. You can learn more about CI’s mission and programs on our website.
