BrandStory

A young student at The Florida Center's Starfish Academy offers a joyful "thank you" to the community that helps children thrive.

Every child deserves a chance to grow, heal, and thrive. The Florida Center for Early Childhood’s second annual Wonder Gala, on Friday, December 5 at The Ora, is a night that makes those possibilities real. This powerful celebration honors the courage of children and families who have overcome immense challenges—and the compassion of a community that helps them succeed. Guests will experience moving narratives, the inspiring “Wonder Wall” of portraits, a gourmet feast by Michael’s On East, an open bar, and powerful performances by rising vocalist Allison Nash and Soul Sensations—sure to fill the dance floor. More than an evening of elegance, the Wonder Gala is a call to hope—where generosity transforms lives and dreams take root.
