Discovering Justice Annual Gala

Annual Gala 2024: Partners for Justice

We’re excited to announce that our Annual Gala will be taking place on June 26, 2024. That Wednesday evening, our community will come together at Artists for Humanity’s EpiCenter in Boston’s Fort Point to celebrate the “Partners for Justice” who make our work possible!

Buy your Gala tickets now or become a sponsor to support the work of Discovering Justice.

Plus, sign up to receive weekly Gala updates by email, including our favorite parts of the Gala to look forward to, exciting items from our online Auction, and spotlights on the partners who make the work of Discovering Justice possible.

Becoming a Sponsor

Each year, Discovering Justice aims to raise more than $400,000 at our spring gala. These funds will provide thousands of students across Massachusetts with access to enriching civics programs that emphasize critical thinking, compassion, and self-discernment, to encourage students to be bold leaders and agents for change in their communities.

The success of our gala each year wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our sponsors. We are offering a number of sponsorship packages with varying benefits. For a breakdown of those benefits by sponsorship level, and for more information about how Gala sponsorship supports our programs and students, you can download our 2024 Gala Sponsorship Kit below.

If you’re interested in showcasing your organization at the next Discovering Justice Gala through sponsorship, please contact Development and Administrative Associate Katherine Susich at ksusich@discoveringjustice.org. Thank you for your suppor
