Greensboro-based Neighbors Helping Neighbors (NHN) will bring the elegance and excitement of Monte Carlo to Lake Oconee with its Monte Carlo Night at The Ritz event, Oct. 15 at The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee.
NHN recently announced Reynolds Lake Oconee Properties as a Diamond Sponsor of the event, its highest level of sponsorship.
“We are incredibly grateful to Reynolds Lake Oconee Properties for stepping forward in such a significant way,” NHN Executive Director Allyn Rippin said. “Their generosity is an investment in the people who call this community home and a wonderful example of what it means to be neighbors helping neighbors.”
Monte Carlo Night at The Ritz will welcome more than 200 guests for an elegant evening of classic casino games, heavy hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, live and silent auctions, and a paddle raise benefiting NHN’s three programs.
NHN restores hope, stability, and dignity to neighbors in Greene and Putnam counties who are facing hardship. The organization serves families, children, seniors, veterans, and individuals with disabilities through critical home repairs that ensure safe, livable homes, reliable transportation through critical car repairs and replacement vehicles, and beds for children who do not already have one of their own.
NHN entered 2026 with an ambitious goal of impacting the lives of 1,100 local neighbors by completing 100 home repairs, providing 60 car replacements or repairs, and delivering 250 beds.
Halfway through the year, the organization had completed 47 home repairs, provided 26 vehicle repairs or replacements, and delivered 154 beds.
“Every one of the 1,100 neighbors we hope to serve this year represents a life that can be meaningfully changed,” Rippin said. “Monte Carlo Night helps ensure we reach that goal while providing the resources needed to help more neighbors as the demand for our services continues to grow.”
As Diamond Sponsor, Reynolds Lake Oconee Properties helps to make this special evening and its impact on local families possible.
Monte Carlo Night at The Ritz will be 5:309:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 15, at The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee. Sponsorship opportunities remain available. Tickets and tables are limited. Visit nhnga.org or contact Rippin at 762-815-3606 or execdir@nhnga.org for more information.
