This evening of giving will truly be one to celebrate and we hope you can join us! During the tasting, we will have a small silent auction and then move into our Live Auction. On November 8, 2023 we will celebrate our local moms and babies with about 200 of Tampa’s philanthropic leaders and healthcare providers, at the Tastiest Gala in Town!
