“This opportunity truly is changing our organization and our path forward,” states Kelly Backes, board president of the Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin.
The Autism Society SE WI were the recipients of the first-ever Baird Center Gala Giveaway. On June 15, 2024, ASSEW hosted the Reimagine Gala in the Baird Ballroom. Along with some help from Levy Restaurants, our food and beverage partner, and CTI, our A/V team, the team at ASSEW got to work planning their biggest gala yet.
Previously, ASSEW’s gala drew in about 220 people. As part of their winnings, ASSEW was able to welcome 460 guests free of charge at their gala this year, allowing for more people to attend.
Hosting ASSEW was a great opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to ensuring our guests feel welcome and safe. In addition to the two permanent sensory rooms located in the north building, the gala featured a larger, custom sensory room designed specifically to meet the ASSEW’s gala needs.
