Erika’s Lighthouse invites you to join them at their 10th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, May 3rd for an evening to celebrate 10 years of being “A Beacon of Hope for Adolescent Depression”.

This is the second benefit Erika’s Lighthouse has hosted, and this year is all about paying homage to the past, celebrating the present and gearing up for the exciting possibilities of the future of youth mental health education.

Gala co-chairs, Beth Brady and Linda Monico, along with the support of the Erika’s Lighthouse Party Committee, Executive Council and Board of Directors, have envisioned an energetic and elegant night of drinks, seated dinner and dancing to the music of “The T-Byrdz”.

The evening’s events will take place at Michigan Shores Club in Wilmette along the natural beauty of a moonlit Lake Michigan, a perfect venue to honor the lighthouse and what it symbolizes – to shed light on a common, serious and treatable illness of youth that has been left in the dark.

The event would not be possible without sponsors, which include BMO Harris Bank, a gracious partner who has generously offered to match donations leading up to and on the night of the gala. Also, Sheridan Road Magazine, who is showing their support through their contribution of media coverage, in addition to, Morgan Stanley.

To support this cause, tickets are $150 per person or groups can access whole tables of eight, ten or twelve at a reduced rate. Other opportunities to support include the Fund-a-Need Paddle Raise and a Cork Pull. Cocktail attire is encouraged and valet parking is complimentary.

This is an ideal night out for couples and friends to come together and support an organization that has made tremendous strides in raising awareness of adolescent depression and reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness in our northshore communities and beyond. 

Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate with Erika’s Lighthouse and “Get Depression Out of the Dark”.
