The Next Steps 4 Seniors Foundation will host its highly anticipated Annual Gala on Thursday, October 23, 2025, from 5:30 to 9:00 p.m. at the elegant Royal Park Hotel in downtown Rochester. 

This year’s event embraces the glitz and glamour of old Vegas Rat Pack ambiance, featuring Frank Sinatra-inspired live music, an open bar, and a gourmet dining experience. Guests will enjoy an unforgettable evening of entertainment and philanthropy, all in support of a vital cause. 

Proceeds from the gala will directly benefit local seniors, helping to provide safe housing and compassionate care, allowing them to live their final years with dignity and grace. 

“Every senior deserves to feel secure, valued, and cared for during their later years,” said Wendy Jones, Founder and President of the Next Steps 4 Seniors Foundation. “Our annual gala is not just a celebration — it’s a powerful opportunity to rally our community and bring real help to those who need it most.” 

The night will also include an exciting live auction and raffle, featuring exclusive items such as: 

• A luxury vacation home stay in Jackson Hole, Wyoming
• Detroit Lions ticket package
• Detroit Tigers ticket package
• Elegant diamond earrings 
• … and many more high-value prizes
