Elite 100 Test Track Fund-raising Dinner and Event

This auction will benefit A Birthday Party Wish, which is a 501c3 non profit organization formed to provide birthday parties for homeless children and children who are financially in need. The kids that we help have never had the chance to experience a true birthday party celebrating the day of their birth.

Imagine, waking up on your birthday with no cake, no ice-cream, no presents, no birthday party. That’s the reality for many kids. So in 2012, Johnny and Gabrielle Wright decided to do something to change that reality.

Instead of accepting gifts for their birthday parties, they turned their parties into an annual fundraiser to start a charity called, “A Birthday Party Wish,” so that kids who never had the chance to have a birthday party could have their own special day. A Birthday Party Wish is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by Johnny & Gabrielle Wright with the purpose of providing birthday parties for kids in need. Many families do not have the ability to provide a birthday party for their child. However, every child should have the chance to celebrate the day they were born with their family and friends. Not only is this a special time for a child, but it is the most special time for a parent. A Birthday Party wish allows a child to pick a party location, cake theme and flavor, send out invitations if they choose, choose their birthday gifts, and invite friends and family. Johnny and Gabrielle wanted each child to be able to celebrate their birthday at a fun party location. So, with the help of many local Orlando businesses and the support of family and friends who have donated, Johnny and Gabrielle were able to make their dream of granting Birthday Party Wishes to kids in need a reality.

On December 13, 2014 from 6pm - 10pm, A Birthday Party Wish will host its Elite 100 Fund-raising Gala at Epcot Center's Test Track. Guests will experience Test Track in a private manner, then be escorted to the General Motors private dining room for red carpet arrival, dinner, dancing and silent auction. Only 100 of Orlando's Philanthropic Elite will be in attendance at this Gala to celebrate life…one wish and one birthday party at a time!

Once this online auction ends, our guests at the Elite 100 Gala will have time to enter any closing bids. If you bid online, please make sure it is your highest possible offer because once online bidding closes there will be time for the Gala attendees to place their closing bids
