“The 2017 Mayor’s Benefit Gala raised over $55,000 for the Young Scholars Program.
The event, hosted by Utica Mayor Robert Palmieri and his wife Susan, was held on April 29th at the Radisson in Utica.
Pamela Matt is the Executive Director of Young Scholars, whose goal is to “grow big dreams.” Matt says the proceeds will be used to pay for internships for high school students.”
