Denard Span Foundation Inc

The Denard Span Foundation empowers single-parent families in Tampa Bay by providing essential resources, including transportation support, to foster connections and opportunities for a brighter future.

You are invited to join us at the Denard Span Foundation&rsquo;s 2026 Gala: An Evening of Connection. It is through meaningful connections that hope is restored, burdens are shared, and lives are changed. This year, the foundation is committed to building connections that strengthen single-parent families - connecting parents to resources, children to opportunities, families to communities, and every individual to a future filled with purpose and possibility. All proceeds from the gala will directly support the Denard Span Foundation&rsquo;s mission to assist single-parent families via the DSF Transportation Program. Our goal is to amplify our positive impact in the Tampa Bay community and provide essential support to those who need it most. Held at the historic Rialto Theatre, this annual dinner gala gathers Tampa Bay&rsquo;s business leaders, philanthropists, and change makers for a night that replaces obstacles with opportunities and uncertainty with hope. Through powerful storytelling, live entertainment, and intentional giving, An Evening of Connection supports our transportation initiative, providing single mothers with the reliable vehicles, repairs, and resources they need to move forward.
