The Junior League of Jacksonville will host the Changemakers Soirée fundraiser to help feed Jacksonville families facing hunger and support women’s leadership development

Tickets are now on sale for the event, which takes place on Saturday, April 25 at Ruby Beach Brewing in Downtown Jacksonville. Action News Jax evening anchor Tenikka Hughes will serve as the event’s emcee.

Attendees will enjoy a gourmet meal, craft beer, wine, and signature cocktails, live music and DJ, a live caricature artist, and opportunities to bid on over $12,000 worth of items and events donated by more than 70 local, regional, and national businesses.

All funds raised will directly benefit Junior League of Jacksonville programs like Fresh Minds, which provided 13,700 healthy meal kits to local Jacksonville families experiencing food insecurity in the past year.

“By attending, guests directly support this work and help empower women to create lasting change,” said Tonya Wood, President of the Junior League of Jacksonville. “The Changemakers Soirée is more than a celebration—it’s an investment in the current and future women leaders of the League and the community we serve.”

Tickets are limited. General Admission tickets are $85, and VIP tickets—which include an unlimited open bar—are $115. Two VIP Tables remain and are available for $1,000 each, seating 8 people and featuring special gifts.
