The Climate Adaptation Center Inc. invites you to join us for the 4th Annual Climate Champions Awards, a signature event dedicated to honoring extraordinary individuals making a lasting impact in the field of climate adaptation. This much-anticipated celebration will take place on March 11, 2026, at the Michaels on East Ballroom in Sarasota, Florida, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
Recognizing Our Climate Champions: We proudly add new Climate Champs to the 11 Climate Champions whose sustained commitment and innovative contributions inspire hope and action for a resilient future. Their work embodies the spirit of progress and collaboration necessary to address our changing climate.
The event’s highlight will be an Academy Awards-style ceremony, where each nominee is honored, culminating in the presentation of the coveted Beacon Crystal Lighthouse Statue to our winner, an enduring symbol of leadership and vision in climate adaptation.
A Festive and Inspirational Gathering: Join us for a terrific luncheon featuring music, a fabulous meal, and an atmosphere brimming with celebration and inspiration. Connect with leading climate advocates, innovators, and community members who share a passion for creating positive change.
This is more than an awards ceremony—it’s a community coming together to recognize, motivate, and celebrate the champions among us.
