15th Annual “The Auction – Uncork & Unwind”
Benefitting Camillus House
On April 26, 2025, Camillus House hosted its 15th Annual “The Auction – Uncork & Unwind” at the Loews Coral Gables, raising a record-breaking $1.3M+ to support resources and programs addressing homelessness and other critical services for Miami’s most vulnerable residents.
Over 400 guests were welcomed with a caviar and champagne reception and had the opportunity to bid on exclusive items during a silent auction. The evening featured entertainment by Pulitzer Prize-winning author and humorist Dave Barry, and a six-course dinner prepared by James Beard Award-winning Chef Michelle Bernstein during a spirited live auction.
Top-selling items included the “Dinner of a Lifetime,” which sold to nine guests at $8,000 per seat, and a Regent Seven Seas Cruise that garnered a $21,000 winning bid.
A heartfelt thank you to our generous sponsors who helped make this night a success:
Balthazar Sponsors – American Airlines & City of Miami
Methuselah Sponsor – Park West Foundation
Cigar Lounge Sponsor – TD Bank
Next year’s event is set for Saturday, April 25, 2026. Mark your calendars! For sponsorship opportunities, please contact Janet Simpkins at janets@camillus.org or 954-989-2550.
