Event Overview

The 37th Annual Spring Gala was truly a night to remember! On March 15, 2025, our incredible community gathered at Martin’s West in Baltimore, MD, for an evening overflowing with joy, laughter, and the spirit of inclusion. It was more than just a celebration—it was a powerful reflection of the transformative impact we create together every day.

The evening kicked off with a vibrant cocktail hour and a lively silent auction, where guests eagerly bid on exclusive items and experiences—all in support of Target Community’s life-changing programs. As the energy built, a fantastic live band took the stage, filling the room with music that had everyone dancing, singing, and celebrating well into the night.

Throughout the night, the ballroom was alive with merriment, heartfelt connection, and a genuine sense of family. Attendees donned their best green ties, symbolizing hope, unity, and their commitment to building a stronger, more inclusive future. Everywhere you looked, you could feel the love and gratitude flowing between participants, families, supporters, and friends.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this night unforgettable. Together, we celebrated real lives changed—and created even more opportunities for empowerment and community in the year ahead!
