Glitz & Gallop Gala

Description

An Evening of Style, Racing & Impact

Join us on Saturday, May 2nd from 4:00–7:00 PM at the Sanders Beach Resource Center for United Way of West Florida’s Annual Glitz & Gallop Gala, a one-of-a-kind fundraising experience inspired by the excitement and elegance of the 152nd Kentucky Derby. 

Guests will enjoy watching the Kentucky Derby LIVE while sipping handcrafted cocktails and savoring delicious hors d’oeuvres. This high-energy event blends Southern charm with meaningful impact, directly supporting those in our community who are ALICE — Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed — hardworking individuals and families who earn above the federal poverty level yet make too much to qualify for most government assistance. These members of our community struggle to cover basic necessities and live paycheck to paycheck.

Event Highlights:

• Live Broadcast: Catch every second of the 152nd Kentucky Derby.
• Gourmet Fare: Handcrafted cocktails and premium hors d’oeuvres.
• Silent Auction: Bid on exclusive items and unique experiences.
• Interactive Racing: Engage in interactive horse races throughout the evening.
• Win Big: Multiple chances to walk away with exciting prizes.

Dress Code: Put on your best Derby-inspired attire, place your bets, and join us for an unforgettable evening where glamour meets generosity.
