The Fourth Annual Debt Gala is a wrap, but you can still donate!

Help us reach our 2026 goal!

Every-Body who came to the Debt Gala,

On the eve of the Met Gala, you were the beating heart of an effort to help everyday Americans make their lives more livable and free them from financial hardship.

Our fundraising page, to date, has just surpassed $40K (!),
and donations are still coming in as we try to reach our goal of $45K.

We are so grateful for your support of 
Undue Medical Debt and Point of Pride.

If you know anyone who might be inspired to support, 
our donation link remains live!


Give a hand in the future?

Let us know if you would like to get involved! We appreciate the support of all of our advisors, volunteers and friends and are always open to more!
