The YAI Gala 2013 The Bridge to a New Era

On November 13, 2013 YAI celebrated the future of a new era for people with disabilities. Queen of Talk, Wendy Williams, emceed this year’s YAI Gala, The Bridge to a New Era. Guests enjoyed the evening at Guastavino’s, a stunning space below the 59th Street Bridge, for a party with a purpose.

TGI Office Automation was pleased to be a part of the event as a Red Carpet Sponsor. Together we are working to raise awareness and to build a world that sees beyond disability. We also demonstrate our commitment to diversity and community by employing YAI graduates in our service department. It has been a wonderful experience over the years.

Since 1957, the YAI Network has been providing hope and opportunity to people of all ages with developmental disabilities and their families. The organization offers more than 450 programs. More than 20,000 people with developmental disabilities count on the YAI Network for homes, schools, healthcare, jobs and other critical services that enable them to live full and productive lives. More than ever, they’re counting on people like us to make sure that they’re able to continue to provide these vital services.
