The Robin Hood Benefit at the Javits Center was a night to remember, breaking records with an astonishing $126 million raised. Upon arrival, guests were greeted by an awe-inspiring archway crafted from 5,200 pairs of Bombas socks, ingeniously transformed into a Manhattan cityscape. The socks were later donated to shelters, adding a meaningful layer to the visual spectacle.
The cocktail hour unfolded in a stunning 32,200-square-foot space, where a conceptual collage of windows projected different scenes from the Big Apple. These windows framed the soul of New York—its people, architecture, and the moments where New Yorkers step up to help one another. The installation captured the essence of the city’s humanity, evoking the timeless truth that "windows are the eyes of a city." This unforgettable blend of art, charity, and design made the night a celebration of New York’s heart and resilience.
