19th Annual Jefferson Gala Raises $1.5M for New Outpatient Center

Our second virtual gala celebrated Jefferson people and Jefferson’s reimagined vision for the healthcare of tomorrow.

We honored our Frontline Healthcare Workers with the Achievement Award in Medicine. Usually, we pay tribute to a single standout person with the award, but this year we recognized all our caregivers who stood up as One Jefferson and stood out for the kind and expert care they gave.

Congratulations to Award of Merit honorees, James D. and Mary Jo Danella; our Faegre Drinker Healthcare Hero Award winners, Drs. Marc Altshuler and Patricia Henwood; and our outstanding students, Michele Ganz and Noor Shaik, recipients of the Algernon Brashear Jackson Student Award.

A special thanks goes to our sponsors and to others who donated to the gala. Because of you, we raised $1.5 million to support Jefferson's new outpatient center. Thanks for being at our side and helping Jefferson help others—every day.
