The Last Drop 2026: A Foster Village Gala

Enjoy a festive summer evening with your friends and community in support of Foster Village Northeast KS!

During this first-ever gala, we’ll celebrate the conclusion of our lemonade fundraiser season, honor the community that made it all possible, and grow to the next level of support for foster, kinship and adoptive families across the seven counties we serve.

Guests will enjoy a cocktail hour, buffet-style seated dinner, open bar, and a meaningful program highlighting Foster Village’s impact and future. This event will also include a live auction, a virtual silent auction, and live artist Abra Shirley creating an original illustration during the evening, which will be auctioned at the end of the night.

All proceeds support Foster Village Northeast KS as we expand our capacity to meet the growing and evolving needs of foster, kinship, and adoptive families throughout our region.

When: Friday, July 31, 2026 (doors open for cocktail hour at 6:00 p.m.)

Where: Maceli's Banquet Hall, 1031 New Hampshire St, Lawrence, KS 66044
