New Residential Community on Saturday, September 21st at 6:00 PM
Ah, the 1920s. A decade memorialized by The Great Gatsby is lending itself to Harlans Place Foundation for an evening of decadence and a roaring twenties theme set at the beautiful Stock and Trade Co. on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at 6:00 PM, 2668 US-98 W, Santa Rosa Beach, FL 32459. Attendees will enjoy cocktails, hors-d’oeuvres, live entertainment by award-winning hip-hop violinist Josh Veitti, dancing and a silent auction.
Funds raised will benefit Harlan’s Place, a planned state-of-the-art, fully furnished 60-unit independent living community located in the heart of Santa Rosa Beach, Florida where independence, dignity, and a sense of belonging are at the heart of every residence’s experience.

Each unit will provide a warm and supportive environment for adults diagnosed with Down Syndrome who do not require licensed care for physical or mental diagnosis. Sponsors and attendees will be making a tangible difference in the lives of individuals with down syndrome, while also gaining exposure and recognition within the community.

As we embark on this journey, we extend an invitation to join us in shaping a future where individuals of all abilities are celebrated and cherished.
