2025 Chinese New Year Gala

We hope you will join us for our annual Gala, celebrating the Chinese New Year and supporting rural Colorado schools and students.  This year we will be honoring the amazing couple that have made the Nathan Yip Foundation what it is - Linda and Jimmy Yip.

It is certain to be an evening you will never forget.  The night starts with cocktails and appetizers, along with a diverse silent auction from 5-6:30 PM. (And a sneak peak at our Night Market - so if you need to get the right festive attire you can!)  Lion Dancers will then move the crowd into the ballroom, through fantastic dragon-esque decorations.   Hosted by Anne Trujillo (a recently retired, groundbreaking metro-area newscaster), the evening's dinner will begin with a traditional Salad Toss (to bring good luck), a fantastic family-style Asian-inspired meal, Red Envelope sales, and then a short program highlighting teachers and students who have benefitted from Nathan Yip Foundation grants. The evening will culminate by honoring Linda and Jimmy

Please help us fill the ballroom in honor of Linda and Jimmy.  Check out the ticket options for ways to share your own tribute to them - from purchasing a table and program space to sharing a few sentences in our program.  

Get your tickets now!  Prices go up after December 31st and December 31st is the deadline for all tributes for the program.
