The event was both glamorous and philanthropic as Miami’s most giving guests raised more than $800K to directly benefit the “I Have a Dream” Foundation Miami Dreamers. The organization seeks to provide “Dreamers” with year-round programs of academic enhancement, as well as cultural, social and recreational activities throughout the entirety of their educational years. The “I Have a Dream” Foundation is a cause close to the Trump family’s hearts as they founded the Miami Chapter in 1995 and have continued to give back to it each year since.

On the Gala evening, 48 Dreamers got to enjoy a memorable evening that included a silent and live auction with enviable prizes, live music, a decadent four-course meal and so much more. After all of the auction and programming action, the Dreamers wowed more than 680 guests with a beautiful performance of dancing and singing including a video montage with each dreamer sharing their career goals, desires and ambitions.
