STARability Foundation 7th Annual STAR Gala

STARability Foundation is pleased to announce the 7th Annual STAR Gala, Illuminating Abilities: A Day of Giving, presented by STOCK Development and co-chaired by local philanthropists Kelly Assaad and Christa Mangiello. The fundraiser will be held on Saturday, Feb. 1, 2025, at The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón. The event begins at 3 p.m. and features a cocktail party, live auction and dancing. Attire for the affair will be Neapolitan chic.

Following another sold-out event in 2024 that raised over $2.7 million, STARability’s largest benefit event of the year returns to help the nonprofit organization preserve and expand innovative programs that shine light on ability. Proceeds will support life-changing experiences and opportunities for hundreds of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout Collier County.

Individual tickets and sponsorship opportunities are available. For more information about STARability’s 2025 STAR Gala, visit STARability.org/gala.
