The BrazilFoundation New York Gala 2026 reaffirmed the power of strategic philanthropy in building solutions for Brazil. At The Plaza Hotel, we brought together business leaders, philanthropists, and civil society to mobilize essential resources to advance social and environmental justice across the country.
Under the theme “Solutions for Transformative Philanthropy,” we celebrated trajectories that demonstrate the power of collective action — Alessandra Ambrósio, Instituto Burle Marx, Mubadala Capital, and duo SOFI TUKKER, for promoting Brazilian culture on the international stage.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this evening possible: Chair Daniel Urzedo; MCs Roberta Rodrigues and Sandra Coutinho; chef Morena Leite; Fabio Zukerman, who led the auction; duo SOFI TUKKER and DJ Gaspar Muniz. A special thank you to our Committee, Sponsors, In-kind Partners, Supporters, and Auction Donors.
The challenges facing Brazil remain urgent, and every contribution is essential for our network to keep delivering concrete results.
