Beyond 21 proudly celebrated 15 years of supporting adults with developmental disabilities at its Beyond the Harvest Moon gala on October 24 at Cornwall Honda. The evening brought together 175 guests for a memorable celebration of the organization’s journey, the community that has supported it, and the exciting future ahead.

With an upscale atmosphere and a touch of country charm, the evening featured delicious local food, live entertainment, a curated bar experience, and an exciting live auction that raised $15,000 in support of Beyond 21’s mission.

More than an anniversary celebration, Beyond the Harvest Moon was an opportunity to reflect on 15 years of creating a place to belong, fostering independence, building life skills, and connecting adults with developmental disabilities to their community. The evening also served as a reminder of what can be accomplished when a community comes together with a shared vision of inclusion and opportunity.

“It was an absolutely fantastic evening,” said Tish Humphries, Founder & Chair of Beyond 21. “Celebrating 15 years of impact alongside so many wonderful supporters was incredibly special. We are so grateful to everyone who has been part of our journey and who continues to believe in what Beyond 21 can achieve. This celebration was not only about looking back at how far we’ve come, but about building support for the next 15 years.”

The success of the gala reflects the generosity and commitment of the families, volunteers, donors, sponsors, and community partners who have helped shape Beyond 21 over the past 15 years. Their continued support will help the organization expand opportunities, reach more individuals, and build an even more inclusive community for years to come.

Beyond 21 extends its heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended, contributed, volunteered, and helped make Beyond the Harvest Moon such a memorable success.

Here’s to 15 years of impact — and to an even brighter future!
