Dominique Moody – Master of Ceremonies
Dominique Moody covers breaking news and community stories every morning for News4 Today. Moody hails from North Carolina, graduating from North Carolina A&T State University. His career began at WNCT in Eastern North Carolina, where he wrote and shot stories, produced newscasts, and filled in as a news and sports anchor. Prior to moving to Washington, D.C., Moody reported for NBC Connecticut, where he earned an Emmy Award nomination for his news coverage of a plane crash in September 2021. He is a proud member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. and the National Association of Black Journalists.
An incredible collection of items is being curated for the LIVE and SILENT Auctions. Bid on vacations, sports and theater packages, jewelry and fine arts, gourmet meals, spa treatments, and much more!
We are proud to announce Securis and KPMG have been named recipients of the Commitment to Employment of Persons with Disabilities Awards, in recognition of those employers who go above-and-beyond in their efforts to provide meaningful work opportunities for people with disabilities. The awards will be presented at the Gala.
Live dance music will be provided by the fabulous David Akers and the Soul Shakers. This energizing band of musicians includes a horn section and a rhythm section that is second to none. We hope you’ll come ready to dance and enjoy songs from the soundtrack of your life.
It’s going to be a great night of fun and fellowship in celebration of the achievementsof our movement—on behalf of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities—over the past six decades.
We can’t wait to see you there!

Sponsorship Opportunities
Since our first gala event in 2007, we have been fortunate to have the support of generous businesses, corporations, organizations, families, and individuals. Our gala sponsors, through their contributions to the event, help ensure that the funds raised from this signature event are maximized to support and expand programs and services to the individuals and families we serve. It’s also a great way to associate your name with a highly-respected charitable organization and at the same time demonstrate your commitment to serving our community.
