Christmas Tree Ball 2022 Event Journal

56TH ANNUAL

CHRISTMAS TREE BALL

A very happy holiday season to one and all!

- The Ganzi Family

Dear Friends, Welcome to the 56th Annual Christmas Tree Ball! I’m grateful for your participation in tonight’s event, which is Madison’s premiere annual fundraiser. It means the world to us that you have taken the time to celebrate with us, learn more about Madison, and support so many New York City young people who need us the most.

This year’s theme is “Now More Than Ever.” While the past few years have been hard on all us, we cannot overestimate the impact they’ve had on youth. In my role as Executive Director, I see first-hand the many pandemic setbacks, the trauma, food insecurity, and growing mental health struggles. These forces continue to fester in communities like ours – ones that have been hit disproportionately hard by the pandemic.

“Now More Than Ever,” it’s important to have the strongest Clubs possible for our city’s youth — places that give them the access to the opportunities, mentorship and experiences that they need to succeed no matter where they live or what circumstances surround them. A place for youth to dance, play sports and get help solving a math problem or writing a résumé. A place to learn, grow, lead and go further than they ever imagined.

Tonight, you will hear how Madison has continued to rise to ensure that we meet the challenges of the moment, and provide the opportunities needed to stay relevant to our members and their families. You will see our youth share their many talents that were nurtured at the Club, and you will hear stories of impact and of the potential of our young members. You will see proof that our model works.

One thing is clear though, “Now More Than Ever,” we also need our advocates, donors and champions like you. We cannot do this work alone. With this in mind, we want to say “Thank You.” Thank you to this year’s event co-chairs, Trevor Fennell and John Gelb, and to the Event Committee who made this celebration possible. Thank you to our Members of the Corporation and Board. And thank you to you — by joining us tonight, you are doing your part to help us meet this moment!

On behalf of everyone at Madison, I wish you all a wonderful holiday and a happy, healthy New Year.

Thank you so much for your support. Have a wonderful evening and enjoy tonight!

With gratitude,

Tim McChristian, Madison Square Boys & Girls Club Executive Director

When markets are turbulent, hope is not a strategy.

When markets drop, there is a better option than hoping you don’t lose money. We believe that for long-term investors who own a select number of high-quality businesses that they know well, hope isn’t necessary – just patience. Like to learn more? Let’s talk.

Merry Christmas!
