On behalf of the SPFC Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, and our amazing supporters — thank you so much for an exceptional Battle of the Minds Gala! We have raised an astounding $900,000 and we are still counting.

SPFC is excited to share the fabulous photos of the evening with you! You can click here for the full album. Be sure to tag us on social!

Congratulations to our Battle of the Minds Mastermind Cup Challenge winners, Hennessy Construction Hammerheads placing third, BayCare Brainiacs coming in second, and finally, Rays Up with Bayfront claiming first place!

Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to Gary Hess and Trevor Burgess, Lou and Ann Rothschild, and Sarah and Augie Ribeiro for setting the pace for the Gift from the Heart portion of the evening. To all of our donors and partners who contributed through Gift from the Heart, the silent and live auctions, sponsorships, and outright donations — every Gift at every level matters.

This event would not have been possible without the tireless work and generous contributions of our event chairs, Sarah & Augie Ribeiro. We are grateful for their continued dedication to SPFC’s mission and work in the community.

Thank you to our Inspirator Sponsors, who have been key partners in our continued work - your incredible support helped to make this evening a reality.
