Art of Healing Gala — June 20, 2024

  • Art of Healing

    Art of Healing Gala -- a huge success!

    Your generosity raised $678,000. Thank you for helping CHA overcome health disparities! 

    This year's event celebrated the accomplishments of CHA and honored the work of Michael Curry, Esq. who serves as the President & CEO of the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers. We also recognized the Cataldo family and Cataldo Ambulance Service, Inc. with the inaugural Partnership Award. 

    The event highlighted CHA’s commitment to equity and efforts to overcome health disparities. With your support, we can continue to help our patients harness the extraordinary strength it takes to face the systems that marginalize them everyday. Proceeds from this evening will not only allow us to provide outstanding health care services to our patients, but also invest in the future through capital improvements, workforce development and meeting the clinical needs of our patient population through innovation.

    Honoree

    Michael Curry, Esq.
