We began our fiscal year on October 1, 2025. Unfortunately, the “recession” had an effect causing us to miss our 2024/25 budgeted goals by approximately 10%. It was caused by the cancellation of our annual auction. However, thanks to you, our members supporting our many events and by renewing your membership and our staff’s dedication and diligence, we were able to keep our losses to a minimum.
We accomplished it despite the economic downturn. Of course, this was possible due to the support of our members and specifically our volunteers, especially board members who give so much of their time, financial support for events, and expertise in setting policy and preparing and approving our budget.
Our Annual Gala held September 27, 2025 at the Marriott Hutchinson Island Beach Resort, was the best ever, a sell out!!
We are planning our Holiday Trade Show scheduled for November 18, 2025 at St. Mary’s Church in Stuart and our annual “Operation Thank You” beginning November 25, 2025.
