Gala FAQs

 

Through your sponsorship of the 2025 Gala, together we will honor and support the dedication and strength of Upstate’s nurses.

Nurses represent 42 percent of Upstate University Hospital’s workforce and have received Magnet recognition, which only 10 percent of hospitals in the US have achieved. This prestigious designation is for health care organizations that demonstrate a standard of excellence in nursing and proven impact on patient outcomes.
