Please join us on Saturday, October 20, 2018.

On October 2, 2013, one day after his third birthday, our son Carter was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.   The overwhelming amount of support that we received fueled our desire to help families facing similar challenges.  Therefore, we decided to make it our mission to support the autism community and give back in any way possible. 

Over the last three years, the annual Orange Tie Gala has raised over $75,000.  These funds have and will continue to be used to fund and aid various programs and causes in the Capital Region that support individuals on the spectrum and their families.

This year we are proud to introduce our first Honorary Committee and Carter's Crew MVP Awards. Please join us in congratulating the following individuals for continuing to go above and beyond in their support of Carter's Crew.

2018 Honorary Committee Chairperson: Paula McCormick. 

2018 Carter's Crew MVP Award Recipients: Jeremy Cavaretta and Kevin Purcell

Please help us continue our mission at the 4th Annual Orange Tie Gala.  We would be honored if you would join us for an elegant evening featuring silent and live auctions, cocktails, gourmet dining and dancing to raise awareness and money for such a wonderful cause.
