SOME's Young Professional Network Claims A New Spot On DC's Social Calendar With Their Spring Fling Gala!

SOME's (So Others Might Eat) Annual Event Returns In-Person to Support Thousands of DC Residents Experiencing Homelessness, Hunger, and Poverty

WASHINGTON, May 11, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SOME is pleased to announce the return and rebrand of its 18th annual Young Professionals Gala at the newly renovated Schuyler DC, on May 14th at 8:00. Presented by the executive board of SOME's Young Professionals Network (YPN), the Spring Fling Gala (formerly the Winter Ball) will welcome the region's emerging professionals, philanthropists, and socialites for an enjoyable evening with their friends and colleagues in support of SOME's mission. The YPN will be joined by reality star and former Miss DC, Ashley Darby, who will emcee the event.

After the inspiring Young Professionals United for SOME event at Audi Field last year, the YPN is thrilled to partner with The Schuyler DC to once again safely host the annual black-tie gala which is slated to raise a significant amount of funds for SOME programs. The highly anticipated spring cocktail reception is sponsored by many of the region's leading businesses and associations that are dedicated to advancing SOME's mission. Spring Fling attendees can expect to mingle with rising leaders from the event's top sponsors including Carlyle, CBRE, Ernst & Young, Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, McKinsey & Co., and The U.S Chamber of Commerce Foundation, among others.

"I love the energy and enthusiasm of our YPN members who champion SOME's mission through their continued outreach and special events," said Ralph Boyd, SOME's President, and CEO. "Together, I know that SOME can help break the cycle of poverty and homelessness in our region with the support of our energetic YPN members who represent DC's next generation of leaders."

The SOME Young Professionals are a vibrant and engaged group of individuals committed to supporting SOME as fundraisers, volunteers, advocates, and ambassadors. Proceeds from the Spring Fling Gala will benefit SOME's programs, including its job training, residential substance use disorder treatment, and affordable housing with supportive services.

The YPN will host an after-party at Duke's Grocery in Foggy Bottom. The restaurant group known for its extensive Happy Hour, Proper Burger, and weekend brunch will transform into a late-night hotspot with DJ and the drinks will be flowing! Also, enjoy late-night appetizers including Proper Burger Sliders!
