A message from
Marie Candelora,
GRAPE President
Hello GRAPE Members!

It feels like yesterday that we were getting ready to celebrate our 25th anniversary with a big gala. And here we are, five years later and ready to commemorate another milestone! After two years of virtual galas, we will be back in person to celebrate 30 years of advocacy, education, and opportunities for collaboration. 

The GRAPE Gala is a great time to shine a spotlight on your business with a sponsorship or a raffle item donation. It’s not too late to get in on it…we have sponsorship opportunities available at various price points, with many levels including tickets and GRAPE memberships. 

Of course, you can just simply buy a ticket or two and join us for the fun. Our 30th Anniversary Gala is June 9 at the Woodcliff Hotel and Spa. Register online through the GRAPE website or contact the GRAPE office. We hope to celebrate with you!
