Saturday’s December to Remember Gala at the Balboa Bay Resort was a testament to the incredible generosity of our community! We are deeply grateful to every attendee who opened their hearts to support the vital work of UCI MIND.  A special thank you to the incomparable Zack Krone, whose exceptional talent as our emcee and auctioneer kept the energy high and the giving spirit flowing all evening long!   The evening began with the Quilter family’s historic $50 million lead gift—and what happened next was truly extraordinary! Through the incredible generosity of our community, that gift grew to $80 MILLION!  We are honored to recognize Keith Swayne, Michael Hayde and Laura Khouri, Harriet Harris, The Brethren Community Foundation, and The UCI School of Medicine.  Their remarkable contributions transformed an already historic gift into something truly unprecedented. They have brought a state-of-the-art building for Alzheimer’s and dementia research to Orange County.
