As our biggest fundraiser of the year, the Lifting Lives Gala provides unrestricted funding for some of the most in-demand programs, like our food pantries that support working families, aquatics lessons that teach life-saving skills, workforce development programs that assist people in maintaining steady income to support their families, and programs for older adults that help combat isolation and loneliness.
BronxWorks strives to offer a wide array of services to uplift the most vulnerable in our community. BronxWorks provides many resources, empowering our neighbors to work toward building a better future for themselves. The Gala presents an amazing opportunity for us to share our participants’ inspirational stories and highlight the dedication of our staff and stakeholders in helping build a stronger Bronx community.
With renewed commitment from our supporters, BronxWorks will continue to uplift our Bronx neighbors with lifechanging services. We look forward to seeing you at the 2025 Lifting Lives Gala!
“If you need help with your life and you’re willing to put in the work, BronxWorks is the place to be. They take the time with you to connect you with financial information and assistance, therapy, jobs, and all sorts of things. I’ve learned not only how to become a better father but a better person overall.”
-Quincy J., BronxWorks Participant
“It is one of the best decisions that I have ever made as a parent, bringing them here [to BronxWorks].”

BronxWorks is once again a charity partner in the TD Five Boro Bike Tour, America’s largest cycling event. On Sunday, May 4, 2025, tens of thousands of people will ride over 40 miles of car-free streets through all five boroughs in New York City.
Riders for #TeamBronxWorks fundraise for children’s programs at our shelters for homeless families. The stress of homelessness affects children in a profound way, impacting their physical and mental health, school performance, and overall development. The recreational and educational activities in our programs expand their world beyond the daily challenges of being homeless and can counteract some of the negative impacts.
When you fundraise for #TeamBronxWorks at the Bike Tour, you commit to raising a minimum of $750.
