Each year, our Gala brings together elected and public officials, business leaders, environmentalists, and philanthropists from all over the state. Over eight hundred people from across the country join together to support our efforts to fight climate change, conserve land and water, and protect public health across New York. The gala provides an important source of funds for NYLCV & NYLCV Education Fund. Thank you for your generous support!
