The Women’s Fund Miami-Dade’s Annual Luncheon, Power of the Purse – Powering our Community to Change the World, is one of Miami’s most anticipated events. For over two decades, the luncheon has been recognized as one of the largest gatherings of “who’s who” of Miami-Dade County’s executives, business owners, community leaders, public officials and philanthropic-minded women and men. Over 800 guests are expected to attend on Thursday, March 16, at the BankUnited Center at the University of Miami.

A highlight of the luncheon is our legendary Power of the Purse Silent Auction. The silent auction features designer and one-of-a-kind purses, jewelry, fine wines, home accessories, and dining, travel and entertainment packages. Proceeds from the luncheon provide support and sustainability to our work on advocacy campaigns and to the work of the organizations which we support.
