LEADERSHIP

Message from the President: What an Amazing Event!

Wow, what a great gathering at our annual Foundation Benefit as we honored Gary and Tia Stokan and raised money for all the good we do in the community and beyond. We crushed it as they say. We had a record year of giving due to the amazing and fabulous team that put this event together. My thanks go out to Marilyn Morgan and Rosa McHugh who knocked it out of the park as this year’s co-chairs. Shout out to Jeff Clark for all things technical and making sure the software was working correctly. Gratitude to Ryan Neff and his committee for the silent and live auction. We had some great items that attendees got to bid on including several exciting trips. And to Ford Donohue and his sponsorship committee. We had a record number of sponsorships this year. Not only was Chick-fil-A a presenting sponsor, and their former CEO Dan Cathy was also in attendance. It truly was a memorable evening.

And Buckhead Rotarians and guests know how to dress to the nines (idiom meaning: wearing fashionable, elaborate, or formal clothing to look one's absolute best, often for a special occasion or to impress). And everyone sure did dress to impress. Look at the pictures from the evening;

Rotary Benefit: Message from the Co-Chairs

What an incredible event we had on Saturday night!

Thank you for the energy, generosity, and teamwork that made the 2026 Buckhead Rotary Foundation Benefit such a tremendous success.

The gross revenue graph tells an exciting story, and while final expenses are still being gathered, this is already shaping up to be the most successful fundraising event in the history of the Buckhead Rotary Foundation.

That achievement belongs to every Rotarian who sponsored, donated, volunteered, invited guests, procured auction items, and helped make the evening so special. Your leadership and commitment made a remarkable impact and set a new standard for what we can accomplish together.

Thank you again for making this year’s Benefit such an extraordinary success.

With gratitude,

Marilyn Morgan & Rosa McHugh
