For those who were unable to attend – or who want to rewatch the powerful student speeches, poetry performances, and inspiring remarks – check out the full live stream of our Voices gala held on May 12, 2022 below!

The evening featured a very special surprise message from Oprah Winfrey for Khary and Jason – watch it below. Twenty years after presenting them with her Angel Network Use Your Life Award – and a $100,000 donation – Oprah shared her congratulations with the packed crowd.

Watch these powerful short films that we premiered during our 17th annual benefit gala, Building a Beacon, and Khary & Jason’s Story, and share widely!

Check out photos from our recent gala below.

Voices is our signature annual celebration of our youth and life-changing programming. Voices provides a platform for members to share their personal journeys, often through spoken word performances. Voices is also the time we celebrate and highlight the accomplishments of our honorees – individuals who embody the ideals of BroSis in educating, organizing, and training.

If you have any questions, please contact John Dumey, Director of Development, at [email protected]org.

Please note that all guests must be fully vaccinated to attend Voices. We ask that attendees be prepared to show photo ID and your vaccination card, a photo of your card, or the Excelsior Pass to staff upon entry. While New York City is no longer mandating vaccination for events, we are taking this additional step out of an abundance of caution.

We are also planning on streaming Voices over the internet, details about which will be shared shortly – stay tuned!
