WOW. What a night.

Last night, the @teamuws Gala 2026 brought together an extraordinary community, at a ballroom in London, around one simple belief: every child deserves the chance to learn, imagine and shape their own future.

And together, we did something incredible.

>More than £1,000,000 pledged.
>10,000 children whose futures we can help unlock through education.

I’m still taking in the immense generosity, energy and sheer belief in our shared vision of Zero Education Poverty, in the room.

There was laughter, music, powerful stories from the communities we work alongside, some fierce bidding, pledges of support, and a real sense that everyone there wanted to play their part in something bigger.

A huge thank you to Michael McIntyre for being such a brilliant host, Dominic Hopkins-Powell from @christiesinc for leading the auction, our headline sponsor @ropesgray LLP, Handspark Foundation, our match funders including @ey_uki , and everyone who gave, bid and stood with us.

And particularly to Shushma Gautam, who helped remind us why this matters.

Because behind that £1 million are children. 10,000 of them.

Children with ideas, potential, hopes and voices that deserve to be heard.

Education gives children the confidence to use those voices. It creates opportunity, opens choices and allows a child to imagine a different future.

That’s why I’m so proud of what this global UWS community achieved last night.

Education changes everything.

Thank you. ❤️🌍📚

Facebook just served up this picture from 9 years ago. This was amazing. @judyslovin organized an event at @ropesgray to honor @teamcoco’s mother Ruth Reardon O’Brien, who had the most remarkable relaunch story at Ropes in the 70’s. You can watch it here https://youtu.be/_wKd4STNtVU. We had awarded her our @irelaunch Pioneering Relauncher Award and made a video about her relaunch, interviewing her husband, 5 out of her 6 kids,including Conan, who you can imagine was hilarious + he shared a very poignant moment, and a younger partner when Ruth was at Ropes,@LeeRubinCollins. At the event we showed the video, people spoke, and her family was there. Ruth and her husband Tom died at the end of 2024, so having these memories of them are especially meaningful. One of the best experiences during my time leading iRelaunch!

Last week, teams from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts and Ropes & Gray LLP joined us at Prison Book Program in Quincy, MA, volunteering their time to help send free books to incarcerated people.

Group volunteering is a meaningful way for teams to connect, give back, and make a difference together. We’re so grateful to both teams for showing up, pitching in, and making a difference!

Interested in bringing your group to PBP? Email info@prisonbookprogram.org to learn more and schedule a volunteer session. #prisonbookprogram
