Celebrating 30 Years at

The Pink Diamond Gala

An Evening To Remember

On Friday, October 17th, supporters gathered at Russo’s on the Bay for The Maurer Foundation’s annual Pink Diamond Gala, an evening dedicated to advancing breast health education and early detection.

Thomas S. Reynolds was honored for his exceptional commitment and support of The Maurer Foundation’s mission. Lela Schlanger, a senior at Northport High School, moved the audience with her heartfelt story about the impact of The Maurer Foundation’s programs.

From exciting auctions and raffle prizes to a lively dance floor, the night was filled with energy and generosity. Together, our incredible sponsors, donors, and guests helped raise almost $370,000 to support life-saving breast health education across Long Island and the five boroughs.
