2021 Annual Report

Hope on the Hill Gala — Mission: Made Possible
As the culminating event of our 25th
anniversary, the 21st annual Hope on the
Hill Gala marked a quarter century of
progress at the Institute with a night of
glamour, mystery and support of VAI’s
mission. Guests broke out their best
black-tie attire to celebrate those who,
for the past 25 years, have helped make
great strides at the Institute: our donors,
our community, and the scientists and
educators they support. The event
included a seated dinner of delectable
cuisine and artisan cocktails, live
entertainment from AB and world-class
electroviolinist Svet, and presentations
from Institute leaders on VAI’s history,
breakthroughs and dreams for the
future.
Thank you to our Title Sponsor, Fifth
Third Private Bank.
