Premier Lighting of New England generously donates its extraordinary talent to transform historic Phenix Hall into a stunning setting.
What began as a volunteer-inspired event has grown into one of New Hampshire’s notable philanthropic gatherings. The inaugural Pink Tie Gala raised $42,000 for the American Cancer Society, followed by $52,000 the next year. In 2025, our community more than doubled that impact, raising $118,000.
Our 2026 theme, “Mission Possible,” reflects a simple belief: extraordinary things can happen when a community comes together around a common purpose.
Cancer touches our families, friends, neighbors and colleagues. Funds raised through the Pink Tie Gala advance the mission of the American Cancer Society through cancer research, patient services, prevention and early detection, and resources for people navigating cancer and survivorship.
One of the defining strengths of the Pink Tie Gala is the extraordinary generosity behind it. Nearly all event expenses are donated in-kind by local businesses and community partners, from Phenix Hall and cuisine to beverages, flowers, linens, décor, lighting and entertainment.
This remarkable collaboration allows the vast majority of dollars raised to directly benefit the mission of the American Cancer Society.
As we look toward October, we invite NH business leaders to join us as sponsors, donors and guests. Together, we can honor those we have lost, stand beside those impacted by cancer today, and show what is possible when a community comes together.
