A Night by the Narragansett

A  Night by the Narragansett will benefit the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Center.

Guests will gather under the tent on The Point at Safe Harbor – New England Boatworks on the shores of Narragansett Bay for lawn games, cocktails, delicious fare from McGrath’s Clambakes & Catering, and dancing to high energy World Premier Band, the band that performed at last year’s Centennial Celebration.

All proceeds from the evening will support the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Center’s hunger relief, education and community programs. Last year, the Center served 5,670 people, the most in its history. Founded in 1922 and renamed after Dr. King in 1922, the MLK Community Center fights hunger, promotes health, educates young and school-aged kids, supports families, and engages seniors in Newport County. The MLK builds community.

Potter League’s 2022 Heart & Sole Walk for Animals

About the Heart & Sole Walk for Animals

Join Rhode Island’s largest Pet Walk to support lifesaving care for animals in need. The Heart & Sole Walk for Animals is a beloved tradition. In addition to raising essential funds to support our lifesaving work, it’s an opportunity for animal lovers to join together in creating a more humane Rhode Island for people and pets alike.

Your participation and fundraising for the Heart & Sole Walk for Animals helps the Potter League care for thousands of homeless animals each year and gives them the second chance they need and deserve. Our goal is to raise $100,000 to help every animal receive the very best care and find a loving home.

Register today! There is no registration fee to attend. All walkers are encouraged to fundraise or make a donation to the Walk to help us reach our goal and make a difference in the lives of homeless animals.

Rock the Mansion Gala at Rough Point

Don’t miss the biggest night of the year for mental health in Newport County! Tickets are now on sale for Newport Mental Health’s Rock the Mansion Gala at Rough Point, to be held on Thursday, Oct. 6, 2022. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m.

The 8th annual Rock the Mansion Gala will, for the first time, take place on grounds of the fascinating and exclusive Rough Point Mansion and Museum at 680 Bellevue Ave. Previous galas have sold out; the move to Rough Point allows NMH to host 400 guests, or double the size of its previous galas. The unforgettable evening features an open bar, plated dinner, live and silent auctions and live music and dancing to the Mr. Chubb Band.

Rock the Mansion is a key fundraiser for Newport Mental Health’s. Proceeds from this year’s Gala will support Newport Mental Health’s children’s programs, providing them access to mental health care in their homes, in their schools, in our offices and in our community. The event serves another critical role: to raise awareness by openly discussing mental health and substance abuse issues. These problems cut across every walk of life and likely affect many Newport County families.

The title sponsor of the event is J2Construct – our Rock Star.

Other major sponsors (to date) include Promoter-Vickers Liquors, and Stage Manager – Aramli Foundation. All sponsors are listed on our gala website.
