Sun River Health was pleased to welcome more than 500 guests at Cornucopia 2025 – the organization’s annual fundraising gala – this year celebrating their 50th anniversary.
Held at Cipriani 42nd Street in Manhattan, the evening’s celebration honored five decades of expanding access to high-quality, compassionate health care in communities across the Hudson Valley, New York City, and Long Island. Thanks to the generosity of sponsors, partners, and friends, an incredible $1million was raised to support continued access to care for the more than 250,000 patients who rely on Sun River Health’s services each year.
This year’s distinguished honorees included eClinicalWorks, Karen Washington of Rise & Root Farm, and Wilder Balter Partners. Each of the honorees embodies a different aspect of Sun River Health’s mission through their leadership, partnership, and commitment to community. Cornucopia 2025 not only honored the organization’s past and present but also served to energize the bold work ahead as Sun River Health embarks on the next 50 years of caring for patients and communities in need.
