Mark your calendar for a night that transcends the ordinary and embraces the extraordinary!

Join us for “An Evening of Wonder & Whimsy” on March 12, 2024, beginning at 5:30 p.m., amidst the picturesque backdrop of the Naples Sailing & Yacht Club. 

Prepare to be captivated by a special performance from Wayne Hoffman, considered one of the top mentalists in the world! With accolades from appearances on America’s Got Talent and numerous other national and international shows, Wayne’s performance promises an evening of astonishment and intrigue that will linger in your thoughts long after the night ends!


But the gala is more than just a showcase of extraordinary talents. It’s a celebration of generosity and community spirit, all dedicated to supporting our local children and their futures. Approximately 75% of the children (ages 1 to 5) enrolled annually receive tuition assistance for our early learning programs through our Bright Paths Scholarship program.

As you indulge in fine dining that tantalizes your taste buds and make your way to the dance floor, you’ll also have the opportunity to participate in a live auction. As the evening unfolds, prepare for a sprinkling of delightful surprises that will also infuse an air of magic into every moment.

Expect the unexpected, and let the magic of the evening inspire you as we come together for a cause that truly matters.
