Wesley Foundation Hosts “Golden Gala”

SARATOGA SPRINGS —The Wesley Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Wesley Community in Saratoga Springs, will host its annual gala at the Lodge at Saratoga Casino Hotel from 6 to 10 p.m. on Saturday, May 14.

The event, part of a year-long series to commemorate 50 years of service, will mark the first in-person gala for The Wesley Community since 2019. Presented by The Adirondack Trust Company, this year’s theme is “Golden Gala.” Adirondack Trust Company recently presented a $10,000 donation to The Wesley Foundation in support of the 2022 gala.

Founded in 1972, The Wesley Community was established as a long-term senior care community and has steadily grown into a continuum-of-care campus featuring independent and assisted living apartments, compassionate skilled nursing and memory care services.

The Honorary Chairs of the event are Gary and Aimee Dake. Proceeds will support the ongoing renovations of the Springs Building at Wesley Health Care Center. Fundraising for this project was temporarily paused during the global pandemic to allow staff to focus exclusively on delivering the best possible care to residents. The goal of this important renovation project will be to provide home-like comforts and welcoming surroundings for the long-term care residents who live at the Springs building.

Tickets for the Golden Gala are $150 per person or $250 per couple. Reservations are required and can be made by phone at 518-691-1420 or at www.thewesleycommunity.org/gala. The Lodge at Saratoga Casino Hotel is located at 1 Nelson Ave, Saratoga Springs.
