Kiran’s 25th Anniversary Gala

On the evening of May 31st, more than 250 Kiran supporters gathered in Chapel Hill for our first ever gala in recognition of Kiran’s 25th anniversary. It was a wonderful night of singing, dancing, delicious food, and community. The event brought together the original Founders, past Board Members, Directors, Advisory members and lots of community members. Some familiar faces but also many that were attending a Kiran event for the first time. A huge thanks goes out to our sponsors, silent auction donors, performers, Gala committee, and everyone who was in attendance.

Here is a sneak peek of how the night went! You can check out the rest of the photos here!
