A Night to Remember at the 2023 'Illuminat10n' Gala |
On Friday, October 20, more than 700 local business leaders, community members, Allegheny Health Network (AHN) and Highmark Health leaders, caregivers, and patients came together to celebrate AHN's first decade and honor our generous donors and partners for their continuous support. The ‘Illuminat10n’ Gala raised more than $2 million for AHN employee wellness initiatives and the AHN Psychiatry and Behavioral Health Institute. It has been a remarkable 10 years, and we were honored to celebrate together and share stories of philanthropic impact. |
