PAIR Gala Celebration 

Funding Drives Graphics NEWEST5

PAIR's Annual Gala celebration, which will be held on Monday, June 3, 2024 at the Seaport Hotel in Boston, will be a special evening and powerful moment to honor all those who work so hard to assist our vibrant immigrant community. The gala will bring together leaders in Greater Boston’s legal, nonprofit and business communities, including law firm partners, corporate counsel, philanthropists, immigrants, and community activists. Guests will have a chance to meet a PAIR client and to hear their story of hope.

The gala is PAIR’s largest community fundraiser, allowing us to serve courageous asylum seekers and detained immigrants with high quality, holistic legal services. We fundraise, particularly now, to ensure our critical programs can continue to benefit those who need it most. Each dollar donated to PAIR's Fund The Mission Drive is one more immigrant’s dream of a better life realized, one more helping hand to those desperately in need of legal aid, and one more asylum seeker who has the opportunity to find their voice and live their dream. 

We are proud to honor and congratulate distinguished awardees each year. This year's incredible awardees are:
