Join us for a night of purpose, generosity, and community.
Elevate is more than an auction.
It’s an opportunity to stand with neighbors who simply need a safe way in and out of their homes.
Every bid placed, every table filled, every act of generosity helps build a wheelchair ramp for someone who cannot afford one — a veteran, a senior, a parent, a child.
When you raise your bid, you’re not just winning an item.
You’re giving safety.
You’re restoring independence.
You’re building dignity.
Let your generosity reflect the kind of community we want to be.
Bid boldly.
Give generously.
Be part of something that matters.

Guest Speaker
Brandon Scott
Brandon Scott is a storyteller, advocate, and someone who has never let limitations define what is possible. Born with a physical disability and using a power wheelchair, Brandon has spent his life challenging expectations and redefining ability.
He competed as a high school wrestler and later gave back as a wrestling coach, inspiring others to push beyond their limits. His passion for sports also led him to the NCAA, where he helped run social media for Division I Championships, capturing moments that connect and inspire fans.
Today, Brandon uses his voice to advocate for inclusion and opportunity for people of all abilities. Above all, he is a proud husband and father who believes there are no limits to what we can achieve when we choose possibility over limitation.
VIP Bourbon Tasting
Joe Gruss
Famous for his "Bourbon Battles", Joe Gruss is a SAWs board member and bourbon enthusiast known for bringing people together through shared experiences. At Elevate, he hosts an exclusive VIP bourbon tasting featuring exceptional pours and great conversation—all in support of building freedom through mobility.
Special Performance
Indianapolis Arts Chorale
Founded in 1972, the Indianapolis Arts Chorale is a community of auditioned voices dedicated to inspiring audiences through the power of choral music. After performing a short set at last year’s Elevate, they return this year with an expanded performance and live piano accompaniment designed to inspire and engage guests throughout the evening.
Event DJ
DJ Rickey Fontaine
DJ Rickey Fontaine is a seasoned event DJ who has brought energy and great music to more than 1,000 weddings and special events.
