On the eve of the Olympic torch lighting Thursday, more than 160 members of the design community gathered at Bryant Park Overlook for DIFFA’s third annual Après Ski fundraiser. The one-night-only event brought in over $100k toward DIFFA’s mission of combating HIV/AIDS, food and housing insecurities, and mental health issues.
Rayhil was the Presenting Sponsor, with additional support from Mohawk, HOK, Rockwell Group, EvensonBest, Florim, Maverick Purchasing, Porcelanosa, McGowan, The Tile Depot, Embelle, The Tiler, Koroseal, Marga Tile, Sky Flooring, Terra Legno, and Input.
Next, DIFFA will host its highly anticipated Angels & Demons Gala at Cathedral of St. John the Divine on March 19, 2026. Honoring fashion legend Fern Mallis, the event will bring together design and fashion professionals for an evening of divine mischief and a shared mission. Stay tuned for details on tickets.
With federal funding for many vital programs at risk, DIFFA’s work is more important than ever.
