SUMMARY:20th Anniversary Power of Giving Gala
DESCRIPTION:\nSeptember 26, 2026  •  T. Pepin’s Hospitality Centre  •  Dress: Cocktail to Semi-Formal\nView Sponsorship Packages ( https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/power-of-giving-gala )\n\n\n\nJoin us for the most significant evening in the Ryan Nece Foundation’s history. The Power of Giving Gala brings together Tampa Bay’s leaders, philanthropists, and community champions for a seated dinner, keynote address with Cedric The Entertainer, student spotlights, silent auction, live entertainment, and the annual Paragon Award presentation, all in celebration of 20 years of impact.\nYour sponsorship ( https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/power-of-giving-gala ) directly funds the programs that develop the next generation of servant leaders across 17+ Greater Tampa Bay high schools and beyond.\nThe mission of the Ryan Nece Foundation is to create opportunities for teens to embrace the Power of Giving through volunteerism and inspirational leadership programs.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy Our Work Matters\nIn our modern society, young people are bombarded with messages of selfishness. The Ryan Nece Foundation aims to combat those messages by exposing young people to community issues, encouraging them to reach outside their circle of knowledge, and teaching them to give selflessly. During the 2025-2026 school year, the Ryan Nece Foundation served more than 2,100 high school students, and we currently have seven high schools on our waitlist.\n\n\n\n“I like how the Ryan Nece Foundation better prepares us for the future, and I also like how the information is actually useful to us and helps us grow. I have never heard of any volunteer opportunities around this school before up until yours.”\n-10th Grade Student, King High School\n\n\n\n\nHelp Us Continue Our Legacy of Impact\nYour support encourages volunteerism, civic engagement, and leading others during the adolescent years — practices that carry into college and the workforce. Reserve your sponsorship today.\nClick to Support ( https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/power-of-giving-gala )\n\n\n
