Please join with us tonight to honor the educators and staff who help to serve our homeless families. These audacious individuals encounter homeless children who are unable to come in to seek services on their own, and their circumstances can be serious. We honor these tireless advocates for children and families affected by homelessness and the unique challenges these families face.

The Mayor’s Ball - now in its 9th year - raises funds for homeless services to benefit every municipality in every city and town in Palm Beach County.

All net proceeds from your generous donations will directly support the Coalition’s “Creating Housing Opportunities” initiative, in effect since 2014. In 2019, this life-changing program helped fund move-in costs for over 500 men, women and children, working in partnership with other agencies. In context, each $5,000 raised will help one family cover first and last month’s rent plus security deposits, to move from the streets into their new home.

Together We Do More

Together, we accomplish higher goals on behalf of our homeless neighbors. We are truly thankful to the educators and staff who every day join us as a crucial link to serving the homeless with dignity and compassion. We also thank Adopt-A-Family, Gulfstream Goodwill, County Human Services, The Lord’s Place and the members of the Homeless and Housing Alliance who have consistently worked with us to fulfill our mission.
