This year, HER Resiliency Center marks a decade of impact – ten years of standing beside young women in Baltimore as they face life’s hardest challenges and begin to shape new futures.
To honor this milestone, we are thrilled to host our first annual Mardi Gras Gala on February 17, 2026, at the Pendry Baltimore – where we will shine a well-deserved spotlight on the resilience of the young women we serve and the vital role of our community partners. With New Orleans cuisine, festive entertainment, and a spirit of celebration, the Gala is sure to be a night to remember.
But the true spirit of the evening is not the beads, the masks, or the games – it is the young women who, with your help, are able to take the courageous steps to reclaim their lives and futures. Women who have endured homelessness, exploitation, or trauma but refuse to give up on themselves.
Thanks to your unwavering support, HER Resiliency Center has empowered over 3,750 young women in the last ten years. Through mentorship, safe spaces, and practical tools, participants have found strength, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose. Many have gone on to become graduates, professionals, and leaders – proof that when we choose to invest in potential, we can rewrite futures.
As a thank-you for your early commitment, tickets are available at a special discounted rate $125.
Come join us in this celebration of community and resilience, as we honor the strength and spirit
of those rebuilding their lives.
