The Young Professionals Committee (YPC) of Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research was officially created in 2019, with the goal of raising funds for music therapy and cancer research. The YPC consists of young professionals, philanthropists, celebrities, and influencers who are committed to organizing fundraising events in support of our mission. The first event organized by the YPC was the Mid-Summer Angel Gala in NYC in June 2019 followed by the Winter Masquerade Ball in San Francisco in December 2019, the Fall Gala in 2021 and most recently our YPC Angel Gala in 2022. All of our events have sold out weeks in advance and garnered great press coverage! We are so grateful to the YPC for raising over $500,000 to date for our mission.
Prior to the official formation of the YPC in 2019, Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation had incredible support from young adults, many of whom have continued to be involved in our mission! Some past events included the Millennial Ball and Teens Making a Difference.
The Founding Members of both the YPC and our prior young adult events include: Andrew Warren, Louie Torrellas, Ayaan Ahmed, Thomas Pierce and Chimere Cisse.
The YPC 2023 event details are coming soon!
