NEIU Virtual Golden Gala and Alumni Awards

Saturday, October 17, 2020

7 p.m.

The event will be streamed live on this page! Tune in soon.

In this unique year, we are asking our most loyal friends to join us for a virtual NEIU Golden Gala and Alumni Awards Ceremony. It may be a different way of participating, we still want you to dress up, grab a drink and join us for an evening in celebration of Northeastern Illinois University, its alumni and students.

At the Virtual NEIU Golden Gala, we hope you will consider other ways to support NEIU on-site at the event:

Live Ask: immediately following the evening’s presentation, we will ask our guests to show their support and donate during a Live Ask.

Bid on an Auction Item: Bid on one of several incredible auction items.
