RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Saving Adolescent Girls Everywhere (SAGE) is preparing for an inspiring evening of purpose and celebration at the Roses from Concrete Biennial Gala, taking place Saturday, November 22, from 5-8 p.m. at the McKimmon Center in Raleigh.

This black-tie event will honor the brilliance, resilience, and rising potential of young women who are overcoming adversity. Guests will enjoy a full dinner service, hear powerful stories of transformation, and connect with advocates and changemakers dedicated to uplifting the next generation.

Proceeds from the gala will directly support SAGE's mission to empower adolescent girls in underserved communities through mentorship, education, and life-changing programs. The organization provides resources addressing issues such as teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, human trafficking, and body image, while also preparing participants for academic success and professional development.
