We’re sold out!!
Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets for our Generations of Peace Gala! We can’t wait to celebrate with you.
Missed out on tickets? You can still support CISV DC by sponsoring or donating to our Generations of Peace campaign.
We’d love to see you.
Maybe someone in your family just came home with a summer’s worth of CISV stories. Maybe you were a participant or leader years ago and still think about the people you met. Or maybe you’re new and curious about what this community is all about.
On November 7, we’re bringing everyone together to celebrate 75 years of CISV and the friendships that make it special.
Come with your family, invite an old camp friend, or come on your own. You don’t need to have been to a CISV program to join us.
New to Gala Night?
At many CISV programs, Gala Night is a celebration toward the end of camp. Everyone dresses up, sometimes in traditional clothing from home, and enjoys an evening of food, music, games, and friends.
We’re bringing that feeling here to our chapter, with food from around the world, time to catch up, and a chance to make new friends. We’ll also take a moment to recognize and thank people who have helped make our CISV community what it is.
We’re planning music, dancing, and activities you can join at your own pace, with plenty of time to simply enjoy being together. If this is your first CISV event, we hope you’ll leave with a few new friends and some memories of your own.
We’re still working on the program and will share more as the plans come together.

Help us welcome the next group of CISVers
Next summer, our chapter will host a Village. Children from around the world will arrive not knowing one another and spend their days learning, playing, and figuring things out together. We want them to leave with friendships and memories they’ll still be talking about years from now.
As much as Gala Night is a celebration, it’s also a fundraiser. It takes a lot to make a Village happen, and this evening will help us get there.
Gala Night also helps launch our $50,000 fundraising campaign for the 2026–2027 season, supporting the 2027 Village, scholarships, and year-round chapter activities.
Your ticket helps support that work. You can also make a gift or become a sponsor, whether or not you can attend.
