Hope on the Hill is now sold out for in-person attendance. Virtual tickets and sponsorship opportunities are still available. Join Van Andel Institute for the 21st annual Hope on the Hill Gala — Mission: Made Possible, and get ready to jump into action against Parkinson’s, cancer and more of the most elusive diseases threatening human health today. It is an especially exciting year for us, as we celebrate our beloved Institute’s 25th anniversary. Break out your best black-tie attire and enjoy an air of mystery and plenty of surprises around every corner. It will be a well-deserved celebration of the often-unsung heroes who, for the past 25 years, have helped make great strides at the Institute: our donors, our community, and the scientists and educators they support. This excitement-filled evening will feature a seated dinner full of delectable cuisine and artisan cocktails, live entertainment, and more! All proceeds benefit biomedical research and K–12 and graduate education programs at the Institute. This is a black-tie attire event. VAI is continuing to monitor applicable health and safety guidelines and will update the event format if necessary. Any changes will be noted here. Please note: Proof of vaccination will be required for those wishing to attend this event in person. Vaccination cards and photo IDs will be required for entry and checked at the door upon your arrival. For this year’s event, we only are allowing vaccinated guests into the institute. Unfortunately, this does not include exceptions for antibodies tests or negative tests. We are still making our virtual event available as an option for those who can’t attend or don’t wish to attend in person. Masks also will be required throughout the event and may only be removed when eating or drinking. Our top priority is keeping our research and education initiatives going strong, and we appreciate your support in our efforts.
