“A Night to Say No” for the UN Trust Fund

“A Night to Say NO” was initially a pet project of 5 young professionals who wanted to throw a fundraiser benefitting the UN Trust Fund to End Violence Against Women and simultaneously raise awareness around the Secretary General’s campaign, Say No-UNiTE to End Violence Against Women.

In May 2010, the Young Professionals kicked off the first “A Night to Say NO” fundraiser at The Gates in NYC where more than 225 attendees enjoyed open bar drinks, great music and raffle prizes while mingling for an amazing cause. To date, we have raised over $5,000, which has been earmarked for the UN Women Trust Fund (which distributes funds to end violence against women globally).
