Join us for a fun-filled evening celebrating our work fighting for housing and social justice. We’ll set sail from the dock at Skyport Marina at 6:30 PM. Get ready to enjoy breathtaking skyline and Statue of Liberty views, buffet dinner, open bar, great music, and plenty of time to relax and mingle with friends old and new. Whether you’ve joined us for each of these sold-out cruises or this will be your first time, you’re sure to have a memorable evening.

This year, we will be honoring Councilmember Carlina Rivera for eight years of service in the City Council. Throughout her tenure, she has championed legislation to protect tenants’ health and safety from disruptive renovation work and lead poisoning, and to hold the city’s code enforcement agencies more accountable. She has taken a strong stand against apartment warehousing and illegal hotels, and has advanced legislation to shield small businesses from landlord harassment. Our other honoree at this year’s gala is the Signature Tenant Coalition. In the wake of Signature bank’s failure in March 2023, CSC joined with tenant leaders and advocates to form a subcommittee within ANHD’s Equitable Reinvestment Coalition, which later evolved into the Signature Tenant Coalition (STC). Together, they have worked to support tenants in formerly Signature-financed buildings — educating residents about the unique role of the FDIC, organizing community outreach, sharing critical data, and convening roundtables where tenants could voice concerns directly to the FDIC and other key stakeholders. Their efforts have been vital in holding financial institutions accountable and empowering tenants to fight for safe, stable housing.
