New York Fundraising Gala Dinners - 2010, 2011, 2013 & 2015 In order to honor LAU’s supporters in North America, including alumni based there, LAU began hosting an annual New York Gala Dinner in 2010. Bringing together hundreds of supporters at each dinner, these events aim to celebrate the devotion of donors and also recognize the university’s achievements. More importantly, the proceeds from the gala are earmarked for LAU's Institute for Women Studies in the Arab World (IWSAW).
