We set the fundraising goal. You helped us exceed it.

Here’s a little glimpse of the magic that took place at Illuminate Tomorrow, the twelfth RiverWoods Gala.

Together, we surpassed our initial fundraising goal of $250,000 in support of Seacoast Dementia Hub and its cost-free services for caregivers across New Hampshire.

We’re still finalizing the total, but one thing is abundantly clear: this community shows up. You showed up for caregivers. You showed up for your neighbors. And you showed up for a community where no one has to navigate dementia alone.

Whether you attended, sponsored, or donated, you made this night a little brighter. Your generosity will help Seacoast Dementia Hub continue connecting caregivers and families with trusted guidance, resources, education and support all at no cost to them.

Eight years after our last gala, we couldn’t have imagined a better way to bring this tradition back.

Thank you for helping us Illuminate Tomorrow. 💜

Jay Allen came to RiverWoods and immediately became everyone’s new best friend.

Jay stopped by ahead of tomorrow’s Illuminate Tomorrow Gala to perform for our residents, hang out, and get the RiverWoods tour. And tomorrow? We get to do it all over again from the main stage.

Beyond being an incredible musician, Jay is a passionate Alzheimer’s advocate and philanthropist, using his platform to help raise awareness and support for families impacted by this disease.

We’ll see you under the lights, Jay!

WIN A PRIVATE DINNER FOR 10 AT Massimo

There’s more behind this partnership than a great dinner. For Massimo, supporting dementia caregivers is deeply personal. His mother left Italy to build a life in the United States and raised her family. She was the heart of their home, finding joy in time spent in her garden and in cooking for the people she loved.

When dementia began to change the way she connected with those around her, Massimo and his family found themselves navigating a difficult and unfamiliar journey without knowing where to turn.

That experience is part of why he’s supporting the Seacoast Dementia Hub: so other families can find a trusted place to turn.

And now, you have a chance to enjoy an incredible evening at Massimo’s while supporting the same mission. The winner will receive a private dinner for 10, including a curated menu and thoughtfully selected w**e pairings. The drawing will take place at the Illuminate Tomorrow gala on October 3.

$50 - one entry
$100 - three entries
