Blog Post: “Diamonds in the Night” – 3rd Annual Black Tie BenefitMark your calendar for April 5, 2025, because Wide Horizons Inc. is rolling out the red carpet for our 3rd Annual “Diamonds in the Night” Black Tie Benefit!

Celebrating Neurodiverse Futures
At Wide Horizons, we know that neurodiverse young adults often face unique challenges: social connections can feel just out of reach, anxiety can loom large, and everyday life can overwhelm the senses. Yet, their dreams—of meaningful employment, community involvement, and a confident, fulfilling life—are vibrantly real. This year’s gala will celebrate these dreams and the transformative power of Wide Horizons’ EVOLVE Program (Expanding Vocational Opportunities by Leveraging Valuable Experiences).
Through personalized guidance, hands-on learning, and critical support, participants in the EVOLVE Program discover the skills and confidence to thrive. We believe that by investing in neurodiverse individuals, we cultivate a stronger, more inclusive community—one where every unique mind can shine.

Our Goal: Raising $100,000
As demand for our services grows, Wide Horizons is expanding our facility to serve even more individuals who can benefit from the EVOLVE Program. We’ve set our sights on raising $100,000 to secure a larger space—so every dollar raised at the gala will help unlock new opportunities for our participants.
Dr. Temple Grandin reminds us that “The skills that people with autism bring to the table should be nurtured for their benefit and society’s.” By joining us at Diamonds in the Night, you help to champion the strengths of neurodiverse individuals and inspire real change in our communities.
