Autumn Gala
The Autumn Gala is an annual black-tie event that will transport you to another world. Past guests have been given “Passports to the World”, experienced “Hollywood Magic”, and have ridden “The Tides of Change”.

This event which honors a community leader who has had a strong impact in supporting those with developmental disabilities and chronic illness is one of the most coveted of all FRN awards.
Mardi Gras
The 4th Annual FRN Mardi Gras Celebration was a memorable event for all in attendance honoring Bill Donahoe, President of Foodtown as this year's "king" of Mardi Gras. Held on March 14, 2008 the Mardi Gras Celebration raised over $100,000 and was an exciting evening filled with New Orleans themed entertainment, Cajun and seafood specialities, and the music and style of a true New Orleans Mardi Gras.
