2019 Golden Thread Gala

Please join The Arnold P. Gold Foundation on the evening of June 13, 2019 at our annual Golden Thread Gala. The Golden Thread Gala brings together a wide variety of supporters who believe passionately in The Arnold P. Gold Foundation’s mission of keeping healthcare human—leaders and faculty of medical schools and teaching hospitals, corporate healthcare leaders, captains of industry, thought leaders in healthcare, compassionate nurses and physicians, and patients and their families.

This year’s gala marks the finale of our 30th anniversary celebration. We will be honoring three extraordinary individuals with our National Humanism in Medicine Medal:

Elaine Adler, Entrepreneur, Community Activist & Internationally Recognized Patient Advocate
Anna Quindlen, Bestselling Author, Pulitzer Prize-winning Journalist & Social Critic
Dr. George E. Thibault, Eminent Professor, Physician & Distinguished Leader in Medical Education
