Birch Family Services Hosts its 50th Anniversary Soirée

On Thursday, November 13, Birch hosted our 50th Anniversary Soirée—an unforgettable celebration of community, inclusion, and the extraordinary people who make Birch Family Services what it is today.

We wish to extend a very special thank you to our honorees, the Family of Robin Keller, recipients of the Legacy Award, and The May Ellen and Gerald Ritter Foundation, recipients of the Voices of Hope Award for their leadership, partnership, and years-long commitment to Birch’s mission.

We’re deeply grateful to everyone who made this milestone evening possible: our generous sponsors, dedicated Board of Directors and Young Professionals Board, donors, parents, volunteers, and hardworking staff. Your support and partnership not only made the event a success but continue to fuel our mission every day.

As we look ahead, we’re thrilled to officially launch the Birch Family Services 50th Anniversary Campaign, a bold $5 million initiative to strengthen our schools, residences, and employment programs. We invite you to be part of this historic effort.

Thank you for celebrating with us. We’re excited for all that’s ahead.
