22nd Journey of Dreams Benefit - A Night in Paradise

Together, we create a paradise of hope, help, and support.

Join us as we celebrate our 22nd Journey of Dreams Benefit on Saturday, November 7, 2026!

This year, we invite you to escape with us to “A Night in Paradise” as we come together for an unforgettable evening of celebration. Surrounded by the spirit of paradise, we will celebrate children with disabilities, uplift their families, and help dreams continue to shine.

For more than 38 years, Parent to Parent of Miami has been a trusted lifeline for families of children with disabilities. As a nonprofit parent center, we are dedicated to empowering families through vital resources, expert guidance, compassionate support, and the strength of connection with other parents who understand the journey.

We warmly invite you to join us for a joyful and inspiring evening. Our emcee, Lissette Gonzalez, CBS Miami Meteorologist, will help make this a special night! An opportunity to create lasting memories with friends, families, community partners, and supporters while championing a cause close to our hearts: children with disabilities and their families.

Our signature gala is more than a festive gathering—it is a critical fundraiser that helps sustain our programs, expand our reach, and continue providing families with the tools, support, and encouragement they need to thrive. It is also a meaningful opportunity to recognize outstanding community leaders who are advancing inclusion, advocacy, and positive change.

This year we're happy to celebrate three amazing honorees:

IMPACT Award: Elton Aguilera - STARS Miami

Family Empowerment Award: Margarita Gaffoglio

Excellence in Family Advocacy Award: Matthew Vila

Make a difference by getting involved today. Sponsorship opportunities, tickets, and program advertisements are available. Your generosity helps us continue empowering families so they can support their children, and together we can build a more inclusive community where every child is valued, every family feels supported, and every dream has the chance to flourish.

Don’t miss this unforgettable evening in paradise—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
