Maryvale’s Harvest of Hope Gala Highlights Community and Connections, and Honoree Patrick Pascal

Nearly 200 guests gathered at Maryvale’s annual Harvest of Hope Gala, joining city council members, community leaders, and longtime supporters for an evening of live music, dancing, raffle prizes, photo opportunities, and a gourmet dinner under the stars on the Rosemead campus.

The evening honored Patrick Pascal, CEO of Chelsea Management Company, for his steadfast dedication and generosity, recognizing his commitment to uplifting vulnerable youth and families.

A highlight of the night was the moving testimony of a young client who, with support from Connections by Maryvale, has faced struggles with anxiety and mental health, graduated high school, and continues her recovery journey. Still early in the process, she is navigating therapy and exploring her next steps with determination. Her story underscored the impact of accessible, family-centered care for youth navigating mental health and substance use challenges.

This year’s gala held special significance as Maryvale prepares to celebrate its 170th anniversary as Los Angeles County’s oldest children’s service organization. Earlier this year, the agency was honored as 2025 California Nonprofit of the Year, recognizing its enduring commitment to trauma-informed care, housing, education, and mental health services for those most in need. Maryvale also received the San Gabriel Valley Reader’s Choice Award in five categories, further affirming its impact in the community.

Local media, including the World Journal and Pasadena Outlook, helped share the evening’s message of hope across Los Angeles County. Proceeds from the gala will support Maryvale’s core programs, especially Connections by Maryvale, which provides substance use treatment and healing for youth and families.

Harvest of Hope is about community coming together,” said Maryvale President & CEO Steve Gunther. “We are proud to highlight the resilience of the youth we serve.
