On Wednesday, we hosted our annual Spring Benefit at Sound River Studios—and it was a wonderful success!
The evening was a great celebration of the past year. We proudly honored longtime board member Nadya de Chimay with the Legacy Award in recognition of her exceptional service and lasting contributions to Riis. We also celebrated our corporate partner, Rise Light & Power, with the Neighborhood Builder Award for their meaningful impact in our community.
Guests enjoyed live music by Ty Stephens and the SoulJaazz, along with a delicious dinner catered by Rethink Food.
One of the highlights of the evening was our silent auction, featuring a fantastic array of NYC-themed prizes—including Mets tickets, museum outings, spa packages, and more.
A heartfelt thank-you to everyone who attended, sponsored, or donated to make this event so special. It was a beautiful evening with our community—and we can’t wait to see you all again next year!
