Coming Soon: Up2Us Gala 2014!
Up2Us is having its second annual gala on Wednesday, May 14, 2014 at Mercedes-Benz Manhattan. This promises to be an inspiring evening, as we bring together our friends and supporters, as well as celebrities and athletes, to celebrate our achievements and the profound impact our coach-mentors have made on the lives of children across the country.
At this year’s event, we are proud to honor two committed supporters of Up2Us, Paul Tagliabue, former Commissioner of the National Football League, and Stephen Cannon, President and CEO of Mercedes-Benz USA. With Paul’s help, Up2Us became a registered 501(c)(3) in 2010 and through Covington & Burling LLP, he continues to support Up2Us by providing pro-bono legal services. Stephen, in his role as board chair for the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation USA, financially supports our groundbreaking Coach Across America program, which impacts more than 50,000 youth across the country. Up2Us is excited and pleased to be honoring them both at our second annual gala.
Up2Us hopes that you will join us for this very special evening. We encourage you to join us by purchasing a table or tickets to see for yourself the great work we do. If you have any questions, please call the Up2Us Benefit Office at 212.763.8599 or email up2us@cmevents.net.
We look forward to seeing you on May 14th. Together, we can change the lives of youth across the country through the power of sports!
