DAWNING FAMILY SERVICES

Experience an Unforgettable Evening for a Worthy Cause

We are all just one life event, and as seen by the hurricanes this past year, just one natural disaster, away from experiencing homelessness, ourselves.” -Tammi Casagni, CEO

This night is more than just an event – it’s a movement to bring hope and stability to families facing homelessness in Hillsborough County. 

By joining us, you are not just attending an event; you are becoming a beacon of change for those who need it the most.

Be a part of a night filled with a community united for a common cause. This fully experiential event features peer to peer fundraising, live music, hands-on activities, community engagement and a transformational evening hosted by Tampa’s own Sarah Rosario as we sleepout in solidarity for homelessness at our campus. 

You’ll know that every moment spent is making a direct impact on families striving for a brighter future.

Testimonials

From Homelessness to Hope:
Ms. Joseph's Journey to Thriving

When Ms. Joseph found herself and her children living in their car, it felt like her world was crumbling. After losing her home and support system, they faced unimaginable hardships—living out of their car, and bathing and cooking outdoors, all while Ms. Joseph struggled to maintain hope for a positive outcome and provide for her children.

But in the midst of despair, hope arrived. A call to 211 connected her with Dawning Family Services. In August 2024, just before the school year began, Ms. Joseph received the life-changing news: a safe place for her family was available.

That moment brought a wave of relief and joy. Through the support of Dawning Family Services, Ms. Joseph found stability, strength, and the power of patience. She secured a part-time job, moved into her apartment of choice, and started building a brighter future.

“I’m so thankful to say we’re flourishing and thriving,” Ms. Joseph shares. “I have a job, our own apartment, and a chance to save money. My next goal is to purchase a four-bedroom home for us to truly call our own. Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. I am forever grateful for the journey and ready for what comes next.”

At Dawning Family Services, stories like Ms. Joseph’s inspire us to continue providing hope and resources to families in need. Together, we’re creating brighter tomorrows.
