Spring Gala: Children Should Be Seen and Heard

Thursday, May 10, 2012
Guastavino’s
New York, New York

Honoring Blake and Michael Daffey
Managing Director, Goldman Sachs
Trustee, The Global Fund for Children UK Trust

The Global Fund for Children (GFC) will host its 2nd Spring Gala to support its 500 grassroots partners around the globe that provide over 700,000 children a year with the opportunity to grow, learn, and reach their full potential.  The children we serve are often overlooked, the most vulnerable, and considered invisible by many, as they are hardest to reach.

This year’s special celebration, Children Should be Seen and Heard celebrates the important work that our partners do all around the world to provide critically at risk children the services and protection they need to survive and grow into healthy productive citizens.  Children who are absent from national statistics are vulnerable to abuse and exploitation, discrimination, and violence. Our courageous grantee partners are bringing these invisible children to light, revealing injustices and providing them with the support and tools they need to make a difference and become leaders in their own communities.

The event will honor Michael Daffey a trustee of The Global Fund for Children’s UK board of trustees. His passion, dedication, and leadership, when combined with the support his colleagues at Goldman Sachs, have generously benefited GFC’s efforts to reach vulnerable children around the world.
