JUNE 9, 2019 NEW YORK, NY. — This year’s Spring Gala for Lifeforce in Later Years, also known as LiLY, a New York based non-profit that operates a nationally- recognized model to help seniors age safely in their homes, was another enjoyable evening with music, performances and for the first time this year, dancing.  For the fourth year,  the gala was held at the stately Columbia University Low Library Rotunda on May 6, 2019.  LiLY achieves it’s mission by coordinating and directing a network of caring volunteers and community resources towards the help of elderly seniors who are committed to aging in the homes they love.

“Lily’s work is an example of how we can leverage a community’s natural local strength and care to benefit elderly seniors and this enriches the entire neighborhood.  This gala helps to make possible this kind of help and also honors the spirit of elderly who are committed to aging healthily in their homes, says Audrey Wu, Vice President of the LiLy Board.

This year ’s Gala honored three remarkable individuals:

New York Times decades-long Personal Health columnist, Jane Brody received the Dr. Herbert Pardes Inspire Award.  Dr Karl Krieger, Vice Chairman of the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Weill Medical College received the Lily Leadership Award and Cynthia Zirinsky, healthcare leader and philanthropist as well as mother of new CBS President, Susan Zirinskly received Lily’s Lifelong Hero Award. 

Broadway talents from The Producers and the current Tootsie, Angie Schworer and Paula Leggett Chase launched the evening as  as Mistresses of Ceremony.   The evening opened with a soulful performance from jazz and music legends Benny Golson and David Amram. 

Guests were treated to another highlight of the evening when the cast of Beautiful gathered to sing LiLY’s theme song, Carol King’s “You’ve Got a Friend” 

Proceeds of the gala are used to fund the social workers of LiLy’s neighborhoods and programs.  Lily aims to expand into more NYC neighborhoods with chapters that they call “villages”.

Special thanks to New York Presbyterian and Mount Sinai St Luke’s. 

LiLY was founded in 2009 by Irene Zola, Executive Director, We also need to remember that caring for elderly seniors also helps families who do not live nearby and gives them a welcome peace of mind.  We receive such expressions of gratitude from families all the time.” The organization also produces a visibility campaign each year that coincides with the International Day of the Old Person, called Love an Elder

Week.  This no-fee- for-seniors model has been recognized by many; the organization and the Founder, Irene Zola, have been recipient of numerous awards, including the CNN Hero and AARP Inspire Award.
