Celebrate, Connect & Contribute

On March 3rd, Rochester Young Professionals (RYP) and Foodlink will host an incredible evening at the breathtaking Century Club of Rochester. The annual gala is a black tie optional event hosted by RYP’s Social Division. Over the event’s first three years, RYP raised thousands for local non-profit organizations. All proceeds from the 2017 gala will benefit Foodlink and its mission of ending hunger and leveraging the power of food to build healthy communities. It’s an affordable upscale evening created for young professionals to connect with local businesses, give to a charitable cause, and grow awareness for needs within the community.

Don’t like wine? No problem.

Even when it’s a wine mixer, the RYP gala is a night of dancing, live entertainment, and delicious food and drink from local vendors. Tickets include a complimentary welcome glass of sparkling wine, beer, wine and food samples, hors d’oeuvres, and more.

Participating Local Vendors:

• Bottomless Brewing
• CB Craft Brewers
• Casa Larga
• Three Huskies Brewing
• Everyday Gourmet Bakery
• Insomnia Cookies

A highlight of the night is a Chinese Auction Raffle featuring dozens of prizes from local restaurants, shops, and artisans.
