Let's Pretend Ball

We're throwing a Ball... did you catch it?

We invite you to pretend to attend Grand St. Settlement’s annual Let’s Pretend Ball. Please stay at home this gala season and know that your fully tax-deductible “ticket” will go toward supporting vital resources for Grand St. Settlement's community members living on both sides of the Williamsburg Bridge.

Your donation to the Let’s Pretend Ball will help strengthen the daily programs that provide opportunities to real people. You can partake in our "Ball" whenever you like from the comfort of your home. We invite you to kick off your shoes, relax and join us in a simple game of catch.

Pretend to attend, but know that the impact of your donation is real and will directly impact the lives of real people.

100% of the cost of your "ticket" helps us ensure that parents have access to childcare - 338 children were enrolled in our Early Childhood programs last year; that seniors have a home away from home within their community - we served 35,000 meals to our community seniors; that twelfth grades are given the resources they need to succeed - 84% of twelfth graders in our College & Career Discovery Program were accepted to college.

Thanks to those of you who have "caught" our Let’s Pretend "Ball" this year. We’re so grateful for your support of Grand St. Settlement.

We have made every effort to ensure the accuracy of this list. If you feel an oversight or error has been made please contact us This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . Listing as of January 24, 2013.
