VOICES Gala- Just 4 Weeks to Go!
VOICES 25th Anniversary Always Remember Gala is only 4 weeks away!
To commemorate this important milestone, we are thrilled to welcome back award-winning journalist Brian Williams as Master of Ceremonies. A longtime anchor of NBC Nightly News and MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, Brian is known for his warmth and gravitas that has made him one of America’s most familiar voices in the news. A dear friend and supporter of VOICES, Brian brings both heart and humor to this special evening.
VOICES 2026 Leadership Award will be presented to former CIA Director John Brennan. A distinguished intelligence leader, John played a pivotal role in our nation’s response to September 11th, later serving as founding Director of the National Counterterrorism Center. While serving as President Obama’s top homeland security and counterterrorism advisor, he was an integral part of the intelligence team behind the historic operation that brought Osama bin Laden to justice.
The evening will feature a stirring performance by Broadway star Rachel Gold, whose powerful voice and emotional depth will bring a moment of reflection and hope to our anniversary celebration. Best known for her role in The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway, Rachel has captivated audiences with her remarkable voice and stage presence.
