Join Catholic Near East Welfare Association for our annual Healing & Hope Gala.
This year CNEWA marks the 75th anniversary of Pontifical Mission, an initiative of the Holy Father entrusted to CNEWA to serve the humanitarian needs of the vulnerable and dispossessed throughout the Middle East.
CNEWA welcomed as its guest of honor His Excellency Archbishop Gabriele G. Caccia, permanent observer of the Holy See to the United Nations, whose calls for justice and peace remain a beacon of reason and hope.
CNEWA presented its Faith & Culture Award to Gayle M. Benson, owner of the New Orleans Saints, a prominent advocate for the presence of faith in culture, especially in her beloved city of New Orleans.
The gala was held on Monday, 9 December 2024, at a private club on Fifth Avenue in New York City.
