4th Annual CareStar Awards & End of Summer Boat Soirée
An evening of recognition, connection, and celebration on the New York’s skyline.
Recognition honors the people who hold care together.
Behind every strong community is a network of caregivers, clinicians, and advocates whose work rarely makes headlines. Public recognition does more than honor a moment — it validates a career, inspires the next generation to enter the field, and reminds the wider industry what excellence in care actually looks like.
A yearly gathering that honors the future of care.
Hosted by Anchor Group NA Corp, the CareStar Awards brings together New York’s healthcare and social care leaders, innovators, advocates, and changemakers to honor the individuals and organizations whose compassion, leadership, innovation, and service strengthen communities and shape the future of care.
On September 16, 2026, join us once again for the 4th Annual CareStar Awards & End of Summer Boat Soirée.
An evening where excellence is celebrated, new connections are formed, and lasting memories are created against the breathtaking New York City skyline.
Where excellence is celebrated and meaningful connections are made.
It is where industry leaders, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, policymakers, community advocates, and partners come together to celebrate impact, exchange ideas, build meaningful relationships, and honor those whose work continues to improve lives.
