Kemp Klein is Sponsoring Common Ground's 2025 Celebration of Hope Gala

The 2025 Celebration of Hope Gala is Common Ground’s annual fundraiser that supports their mission of helping people move from crisis to hope. 

Kemp Klein is Table Sponsor of the 2025 Celebration of Hope Gala through our Resiliency Partnership. Kemp Klein is a proud Legacy Society Benefactor for Common Ground and current member of their Circle of Hope. We have provided in excess of $200,000 in pro bono work to Common Ground. In addition to the pro bono work and financial contributions, we have hosted joint events for staff and clients of Common Ground, participated in Common Ground’s Adopt-A-Family initiative, sponsored The Ride 2 End Suicide, and we have held blanket making and other events to help those in need.

This year, two Common Ground advocates will be honored with the Kay White Legacy Award; Gary Dembs (Common Ground ambassador and Advisory Board member), and Kemp Klein (long-time supporter of Common Ground services in several capacities). The Kay White Legacy Award recognizes dedication and leadership to Common Ground and its mission to help move people from crisis to hope. Honorees embody the selfless commitment and inspirational spirit, in one or more of the following areas: leadership, business savvy, fundraising, volunteerism, and recruitment.

The Gala will shine with warmth, elegance, and the energy of like-minded supporters, sponsors and guests. Attendees will celebrate what has been accomplished and what is yet to come with fine dining, music, silent auction, and a program highlighting Common Ground’s mission of helping people move from Crisis to Hope.  

The Celebration of Hope Gala takes place on October 24th, 2025.

Royal Park Hotel, 600 E. University Drive, Rochester, MI 48307
