We are pleased to invite you to SAY’s 25th Annual Benefit Gala on Monday, May 10th, 2027, at The Lighthouse, Chelsea Piers in New York City!

This special evening celebrates the voices, courage, and creativity of young people who stutter, featuring powerful performances, a thrilling live auction, and a delicious multi-course dinner—all to raise funds for free, accessible programs for kids and teens who stutter. 

This year’s Gala will, for the first time, be black-tie optional and will feature many of our inspiring SAY kids alongside a star-studded cast of our celebrity friends. The gala will include an unforgettable Chefs’ Tasting Dinner Experience, curated by Iron Chef winner and SAY board member Marc Vetri, featuring more than a dozen talented chefs from his network for a culinary experience not to be missed. As always, the evening will culminate in an inspiring show featuring SAY’s kids, with our talented Musical Director, Everett Bradley, leading a live band.

Whether you’re a long-time supporter or new to our mission, this is a night where joy and advocacy shine together. The SAY: Benefit Gala is one of our most meaningful events of the year—bringing together our extraordinary SAY family, friends, and supporters to uplift and empower the incredible young people we serve.

Your presence at the SAY 2027 Gala directly supports Camp SAY, Confident Voices, speech therapy, and year-round programs that help young people who stutter feel confident, connected, and celebrated.

Don’t miss this extraordinary celebration. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
