Eighth Annual Gala 2009
THE JED FOUNDATION'S EIGHTH ANNUAL GALA
INFINITE POSSIBILITIES
June 11, 2009 at Guastavino’s
409 East 59th Street
For the last seven years, our friends and supporters have come together at our gala events to celebrate our successes, honor those who are making a significant impact on the mental health of young people, and raise funds for our programs that are reducing emotional distress and preventing suicide among America’s 18 million college students. This year’s event was more important than ever as we work to protect the emotional health of students facing the added stressors of a bad economy and a bleak job market.
Thanks to everyone who attended and made the event a resounding success.
