Miami, FL – November 11, 2023 – Chapman Partnership celebrated its annual Illuminations Gala with an evening of dining, dancing, and entertainment, honoring the donors and volunteers whose work is a shining light to the 3,000 men, women, and children who Chapman Partnership serves annually. Serving as the largest fundraiser for Chapman Partnership, the Illuminations Gala captured the essence of resiliency through challenging times. In total, the gala raised more than $800,000 to provide life-changing, wrap-around comprehensive programs and services that lead to self-sufficiency for our men, women, and children experiencing homelessness.

The 2023 Illuminations Gala took place on Saturday, November 11, 2023, at the JW Marriott Marquis. The event provided guests with an exciting evening, produced by WOW MKTG, honoring those whose support helps further Chapman Partnership’s mission every day. Laurie Jennings, former Local 10 News anchor and now with Laurie Jennings Live!, served as the Mistress of Ceremonies. This year’s Gala Event Chairs for the 4th year, Heide and Jose “Pepe” Dans, led the event planning creating an unforgettable evening celebrating the dedicated volunteers and donors.
