Sparks! is swinging into 2023! Purchase tickets now for MPDC’s Annual Fundraising Gala!

We are thrilled to welcome back our friends and supporters and look forward to an evening of bow ties, with the return of our creative black-tie optional dress code; bubbles, with a beverage menu focused on supporting BIPOC-owned and operated companies (shout out to The Urban Grape!); and building community, through meaningful awards, exciting performances, nearly a dozen local food vendors, and, of course, dancing to live music by Angelena & The Unit!

We are also excited to once again be able to offer all of our sponsors Community Investment Tax Credits (CITC). Through the CITC program, donors who contribute to community development organizations like MPDC can receive a 50% state tax rebate on donations of $1,000 or more.

Please join us on November 16th, 2023!

We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

When: Thursday, November 16th, 2023; from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

Where: Hibernian Hall Ballroom (located at 184 Dudley Street, Roxbury, MA 02119)

We are excited to be once again able to offer all of our sponsors Community Investment Tax Credits (CITC). Through the CITC program, donors who contribute to community development organizations like MPDC can receive a 50% state tax rebate on donations of $1,000 or more. For example, is your business considering sponsoring the Sparks Gala at the $5,000 level? Consider becoming a $10,000 level sponsor and leveraging the CITC program, resulting in a $5,000 donation out-of-pocket after your Massachusetts state tax rebate.
