Every storm has a center.

A place where the noise quiets, perspective returns, and we can see more clearly what matters most.

The Eye of the Storm Gala is the opening night of the weekend and the moment where we gather before moving into the deeper work of recovery, rebuilding, connection, and community transformation.

Through dinner, fashion, entertainment, a benefit auction, and meaningful conversation, the evening creates space to pause, recognize what people have survived, celebrate how far they have come, and imagine what can grow next.

It is the calm in the middle of the storm—a place to reconnect with ourselves, with one another, and with the community we are choosing to build together.

Water Your Own Grass.
Water Your Community.
Water the Next Generation.

Because surviving the storm is only the beginning.

What we choose to grow afterward is where transformation begins.
