Making a World of Difference
October 27, 2025 – New York City
This year, the Cerebral Palsy Foundation marks a major milestone—70 years of transforming what’s possible for the 50 million people living with cerebral palsy around the world.
The Cerebral Palsy Foundation leads bold, collaborative efforts to advance early detection and intervention, accelerate research, shape inclusive policies, and ensure that people with cerebral palsy are fully included in education, healthcare, and society. Through global partnerships and evidence-driven action, we work to improve lives across the lifespan.
At this year’s Annual Benefit Gala, we will celebrate the leaders, innovators, and advocates who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. It will be an evening to honor progress, inspire action, and mobilize support to drive the next decade of breakthroughs.
Your support enables us to:
* Fund groundbreaking research into treatments and potential cures, including work on stem cell therapies, neuroprotective strategies, and predictive diagnostics.
* Advance early detection and intervention by training thousands of healthcare providers and screening tens of thousands of infants annually—changing the trajectory of children’s lives.
Improve healthcare outcomes across the lifespan, with a focus on the transition to adulthood, mental health, and aging with CP.
* Champion inclusion and opportunity through education, employment, and accessibility initiatives that foster independence and opportunity.
The Cerebral Palsy Foundation is actively driving policy changes and advocating more vigorously than ever on a global scale to shape a brighter future for the most prevalent lifelong physical disability affecting over 50,000,000 individuals globally. With cerebral palsy healthcare costs and economic impacts exceeding $13 billion, there is an immense opportunity to make a tangible difference that will make real financial and societal impact.
