Aging Like Fine Wine: Celebrating the Impact of Care and Community

Join us for the Global Blessing Gala 2024, an inspiring evening dedicated to honoring the resilience, wisdom, and contributions of our senior citizens. Hosted at the luxurious Governors Gun Club in Kennesaw, GA, this event is a testament to the power of compassion and the transformative impact of community care.

Celebrate the year’s achievements with us as we recognize our distinguished guests, enjoy a sumptuous dinner, and listen to keynote addresses from industry leaders like Eddie Biggers and Kara Clark Gilliard, who embody a shared commitment to senior advocacy and empowerment. With a night featuring awards, heartfelt stories, and uplifting music, we aim to inspire hope and highlight the importance of ensuring dignity and quality of life for all seniors.

Come be part of a movement that doesn't just count blessings but strives to be the blessing others can count on. Together, we can make a difference—one senior at a time.
