Gaunce Law Proudly Supports the Gulf Coast JFCS Lives Uplifted Gala

At Gaunce Law, we believe in compassion, community partnership, and support for our neighbors in need. That's why Meredith Gaunce serves on the Gulf Coast JFCS Board of Directors and Gaunce Law served as a Hero Sponsor of the 2026 Gulf Coast JFCS Lives Uplifted Gala, a powerful celebration of resilience, community, and human dignity.

On January 24, 2026, community leaders, philanthropists, and advocates gathered at The Floridian Social in St. Petersburg to uplift and celebrate the life-changing work of Gulf Coast JFCS — an organization dedicated to protecting the vulnerable, empowering individuals, and strengthening families throughout Greater Tampa Bay and beyond.

Gulf Coast JFCS serves nearly 30,000 people annually, from infants to seniors, offering essential services spanning behavioral and mental health support, employment assistance, housing resources, food access, elder care, refugee services, and more.

Every dollar raised through this event empowers individuals and families to find safety, stability, and hope — from helping adults secure employment to ensuring children grow up in nurturing environments. It’s a testament to what’s possible when a community comes together to uplift every life it touches.

Gaunce Law is proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Gulf Coast JFCS in advancing impactful, compassionate service for those who need it most.
