Light Up a Life Gala – Early Bird Discount - Take Stock in Children

Take Stock in Children of Nassau County (TSICN) announces the return of their annual Light Up a Life Gala on Thursday, April 2, 2026, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island. Take Stock in Children of Nassau’s mission is to break the cycle of poverty for low-income, academically qualified students by providing opportunities for a post-secondary education. They offer college scholarships to students, provide caring volunteer mentors, and instill hope for a better life. Their comprehensive services begin in middle school, continue through high school, follow the students’ transition into college, and culminate in post-college employment.

Enjoy an evening of fine dining, wine, and celebration — hosted by Heather Crawford and Anthony Austin of First Coast News. The evening will feature performances by Amelia Island Opera and inspiring stories from Take Stock scholars. Cocktail hour begins at 5:30 p.m. with a dinner and program to follow at 7 p.m.
