Co-chairs Lili Lynton and Michael Lynton invite you to join us for an inspiring evening of cocktails, dinner, live music and silent auction.
Friday, October 23, 2015 at 7pm at CV Rich Mansion in White Plains, New York
Proceeds from this event directly support the recovery-driven services MHA provides in our region.
On this special night we will honor four extraordinary individuals who have advocated for mental health in our community and who have demonstrated dedicated and inspiring leadership:
Marion Lynton will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award (posthumously) for her lifelong passion and advocacy for improved mental health programs and services. As a psychologist and an esteemed member of MHA Westchester’s Board of Directors for 26 years, her work helped to change the lives of tens of thousands of individuals and families affected by mental health issues.
Bernadette Kingham-Bez will be recognized with the MHA on the move Award. Executive Director of Saint Vincent’s Hospital Westchester and SVP of Saint Joseph’s Medical Center, Ms. Kingham-Bez has provided visionary and transformative leadership in both hospital and community-based behavioral healthcare.
Inside Chappaqua/Inside Armonk and Grace Bennett will receive the MHA Media Award. As Publisher and Editor, Ms. Bennett has spearheaded responsible and sensitive reporting of mental health related topics, helping to shatter myths and providing beneficial education to our community.
Yoga teacher and MHA Volunteer Nancy Kardon will receive the MHA Spirit Award for her years-long commitment to sharing her deep knowledge of yoga and its practical applications to the members of MHA’s Sterling Community Center.
As MHA begins its 69th year, we will be saying goodbye to the decade with a 60’s themed evening–the mood will be chill, the music groovy and the dress — Levi’s to St. Laurent!
Live Music by The A Band
