Greenhill 75th Anniversary Gala

A Letter from our Gala Chairs

Dear Greenhill Community,

We are thrilled to invite you to an unforgettable evening on March 7, 2026, at the Greenhill 75: Gala & Auction. This year is more than just a milestone; it’s a moment. A moment to honor the stories, the friendships, the teachers, the traditions – everything that has made Greenhill a second home to so many.

The Gala supports our Growing Stronger Together campaign, which funds vital financial aid and strengthens the future of our school. Every bid, every donation, and every laugh shared that night will help make a Greenhill education accessible to more students. We can’t wait to celebrate this historic evening with you.

With excitement and gratitude, 

Joanne Ho & Angela Hosseini Co-Chairs, Greenhill 75th Anniversary Gala
