This year's fundraiser, "Le Grande Spectacle" was attended by over 300 people and raised over $57,000! Attendees enjoyed cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, a silent auction and a performance by the BAILA Society. The Brighter Futures Society is a group of young professionals committed to the mission of the YAI/National Institute for People with Disabilities Network to help people with developmental and learning disabilities achieve independent and fulfilling lives in their communities.
