Fuller Center's Living our Legacy Awards Birthday Party

July 11th 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Crazy Uncle Mikes Boca Raton

Get ready for a night where purpose meets party—with a throwback twist! Join us for an unforgettable Legacy Birthday Party celebrating two incredible milestones: the 55th Birthday of Fuller Center and the 2nd anniversary of the Living Our Legacy Society.

This decades-themed celebration invites guests to showcase their style—from the groovy 70s to the bold 80s, the grunge and hip-hop era of the 90s, iconic 2000s, and today’s trends. Come dressed in your favorite era and be ready to celebrate in style!

Throughout the evening, we will honor the 2026 Living Our Legacy Society—a passionate community of volunteers, mentors, advocates, and supporters dedicated to investing in brighter futures and making an impact. You’ll also have the chance to meet our inspiring Teen Leaders, dedicated mentors, and valued supporters who bring our mission to life every day.

Enjoy delicious passed appetizers and the excitement of a one-of-a-kind auction led by world-class auctioneer Neil Saffer. In a fun birthday twist, all “gifts” will be auctioned off to benefit Fuller Center’s mission—ensuring that more than 1,000 children continue to feel celebrated, supported, and loved.

This isn’t your typical birthday party—it’s a celebration that gives back. Come raise a glass, make an impact, and be part of a celebration that turns compassion into action!
