NIAF New York Gala

We celebrated with over 700 Italians and Italian Americans for a grand celebration of Italian culture and heritage. The evening honoured Giuseppina Di Foggia, Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of Terna SpA, with the Special Achievement Award in Business; Monica Mandelli, Managing Director at KKR, with the Special Achievement Award in Financial Services; and Carlo Scissura, President and CEO of the New York Building Congress, with the Special Achievement Award in Real Estate & Development.

A highlight of the evening was a student choir that sang "O Canada", along with the Italian National Anthem and the Star Spangle Banner. This was the first time in 50 Years that the Canadian Anthem was ever played at a NIAF event.

Thank you to Bob Carlucci, NIAF Chairman, Robert Allegrini, NIAF President, and to the entire NIAF board for your hospitality in New York at the National Italian American Foundation's 2024 New York Gala!
