PURPOSE Gala will support girl’s education, help refugee youth, and underprivileged children access opportunities in education and creative arts, as well as provide them and their communities with the tools they need to make the world a better place.

All funds will directly benefit and expand youth programs in South Sudan, Haiti, Syria and USA through Stand for Education, Inc., a charity organization founded by Mari Malek. Be part of the change in building a brighter, stronger village for our children. Our goal is to spread awareness on the refugee crisis and expand our program to support refugee youth and girls’ education globally.
