A Taste of Hope…

Gateways hosted our first-ever fundraising dinner, A Taste of Hope, an intimate evening that brought together 30 incredible guests who became the very first supporters to experience this special event.

Our talented cooking students prepared a beautiful three-course meal—homemade bread, chicken tagine, and sticky date pudding—served with pride in our own building. But the true heart of the evening was the voices of our Gateways community. Parents, current and former students shared their powerful stories, reminding us all of the life-changing impact of Gateways.

There’s something unique about a smaller, more personal fundraising event. It allows for deeper connections, honest conversations, and a true sense of belonging.

A big thank you to Quinta Law LLP for sponsoring the evening.

As we look ahead, we know this model will be key to building lasting support for our work.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to making A Taste of Hope such a success. This is just the beginning.
