Raintree's Centennial Paint the Town Green Gala was a success. The energy was incredible, with everyone coming together to celebrate, connect, and show their community spirit. From the vibrant decorations to the laughter and smiles all around, it was truly a night to remember. We’re so grateful to everyone who participated and helped make the event so special—here’s to many more celebrations like this in the future!
The evening began at The InterContinental New Orleans with our Patron Party, then seamlessly transitioned into the main event at 7 p.m. Guests were warmly welcomed by staff and immersed in stunning décor, featuring pink floral arrangements and vibrant Emerald City–inspired balloons. Throughout the venue, attendees enjoyed complimentary caricature drawings, stilt performers, Marie Antoinette–inspired entertainers, live music, and a lively photobooth experience.
Guests enjoyed a variety of food and drink offerings, along with silent auction items and a popular wine pull. As the evening progressed, Raintree welcomed a special guest, Ashley, a former Raintree House resident. She shared her experience at Raintree and how it helped shape her journey, leading her to pursue a doctorate today.
Raintree House provides services to an average of 40 girls a year. The philosophy of Raintree House, in New Orleans, is to provide quality services to adolescent females between the ages of 11 to 21 years old. Residents have often experienced trauma, abuse, and neglect, and Raintree is the first stable environment they have experienced.
Thank You!
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended, contributed, volunteered, and supported this milestone. Your generosity and dedication made this event a true success 💚
