Advot 2025 Gala

Advot’s 2025 Gala is a celebration of the work Advot does and its community of supporters, mentors, and alumni.

This year Advot will be:
– Celebrating Charisma Poler, Barbara Yaroslavsky Courage Award Winner and Advot Alumna
– Honoring Judy Bain, nonprofit consultant, philanthropist, and Advot mentor
– Hearing from Keynote speaker, Father Gregory Boyle, founder of Homeboy Industries.

Advot uses the power of artistic exploration to empower young people to find their voice and grow into courageous and effective self-advocates.

“Advot” means “ripples” in the Hebrew language. Our ground-breaking Ripple Method teaches thousands of young people vital communication and relationship-building skills, inspiring them to overcome the barriers in their lives and to create ripples of change in their communities.
