Saturday December 6, 2025 at the Shores resort & spa

We are so excited to announce our 5th Annual No Longer Fatherless Gala will take place Saturday December 6, 2025 at The Shores Resort & Spa! The event will take place in The Grand Ballroom from Six to Ten PM.

What should you expect at our Gala?! FUN, entertainment, drinks, food, silent auction, dessert, impactful presentation, fellowship, and more. Put on a fancy outfit to show off and learn about an incredible organization making life changing impact within your community

Our Gala fundraiser has contributed about twenty five percent of our annual budget, each year. Funds raised at the Gala will help No Longer Fatherless continue to expand and impact more lives. We now have over 100 mentors matched with over 100 boys! Each year we host about eighteen events for our mentors and boys, group mentoring or life skill classes, we host quarterly mentor training classes with typically 8-12 mentors in each class, we search throughout Volusia and Flagler counties for good men who can become new mentors, and we evaluate how we can become a more excellent organization each year.

We could not accomplish any of this without YOU! We began right here in Port Orange, FL several years ago with zero mentors, zero resources, and an idea to help the fatherless. You all have turned this into a life changing organization helping more than one hundred young men in our area. THANK YOU!
