Family Promise of Baldwin County is giving its signature annual fundraiser a new identity as it prepares for its 19th Annual Benefit, now called A Night of Promise.

The reimagined event is scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 3, from 6-8 p.m. at the Daphne Civic Center. Formerly known as A Chocolate Affair, the benefit will feature a new name and visual identity along with new experiences designed to bring the community together in support of local families, a news release from the organization said.

Among the additions are a live auction and cake auction. Family Promise also is introducing expanded sponsorship opportunities for businesses, organizations and community partners interested in supporting its mission while receiving recognition at the event.

“At the heart of this event are the families we serve,” Executive Director of Family Promise of Baldwin County Beth Biggs said in the release. “A Night of Promise brings our community together around the belief that families deserve safety, stability and the support they need to move forward.”

Lillian Norris, Director of Development/Marketing, said the changes are intended to create a fresh event experience while keeping the organization’s mission at the center.

“We wanted to create an event that feels fresh, elevated and engaging while never losing sight of why we are gathering,” Norris said. “The new identity, auctions and sponsorship opportunities are designed to invite even more of our community into the mission.”

Tickets remain $75 per person, with approximately 320 guests expected.

Proceeds from A Night of Promise will support Family Promise of Baldwin County’s shelter, housing assistance, homelessness prevention, case management, rental assistance and other services aimed at helping families experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity move from crisis toward long-term stability.

Additional announcements about auction items, cake participants, sponsors, entertainment and other event details will be released in the months leading up to the benefit.
