This Year, We’re Not Hosting a Gala.
We’re Launching The
Do Good Games
For years, the Fall Harvest Gala was a cornerstone of FCA’s fundraising. But FCA has never been about sitting back and watching impact happen.
We do our best work in the community. Hands-on. Boots-on-the-ground. And it’s time our biggest event did the same.
The way Long Islanders want to make a difference has evolved. They want to be in the action — not watching from the sidelines.
Picture This.
Jerseys on. Energy high. Your team steps onto the arena floor. The DJ is setting the tone. The leaderboard is live. The crowd is watching. The clock is counting down.
Turning Giving Tuesday into Doing Tuesday.
“FCA has helped strengthen my life and the lives of my children.”

The Tasting Village
Twenty-plus Long Island food and beverage vendors, all night long. Come hungry, explore between heats, and stay after the Championship. A celebration of the community we’re here to strengthen.
Music & Emcee
High energy from the first heat to the final moment. Music, momentum, and live callouts keep the arena moving all night.
The Community Cool-Down
The tournament ends. The night doesn’t. After the Championship, the community comes together to celebrate everything that was built, packed, assembled, and made possible.
The Tasting Village
Come hungry. The Tasting Village brings 20+ of Long Island’s favorite food and beverage vendors under one roof — small plates, sweet treats, and local sips to graze on all night long.
