the Event

This dazzling black-tie evening will feature a delectable repast, one-of-a kind live auction along with the high-energy and authentic entertainment for which this event has come to be known.

The Able Trust, also known as the Florida Governor’s Alliance for the Employment of Citizens with Disabilities, is a 501(c)(3) public-private partnership foundation established by the Florida Legislature in 1990.  Its mission is to be the leader in providing Floridians with disabilities fair employment opportunities through fundraising, grant programs, public awareness and education.

The Able Trust receives its funding from a perpetual endowment derived from noncriminal traffic violations, as well as charitable gifts and support from the public and private sector. Funds raised from The Able Trust Gala enable the Foundation to help countless individuals with disabilities overcome obstacles through its grantmaking activities, youth programs and employer outreach.

Since its establishment, The Able Trust has awarded over $22 million to individuals with disabilities and nonprofit agencies throughout Florida for employment-related purposes, enabling over 2,000 Florida citizens with disabilities to enter the workforce each year.

The Able Trust youth programs provide career development and transition to almost 2,000 students with disabilities annually, helping to reduce the dropout rate and prepare young adults for life beyond high school.
