Ellavation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting families affected by Spina Bifida by easing financial burdens and improving quality of life.

Born from a personal journey of faith and love, Ellavation exists to help families who often face overwhelming medical expenses—leaving little room for joy, rest, or time together. From mobility equipment to therapy and transportation, the costs add up fast.

Since helping our very first family in December of 2022, Ellavation has grown rapidly — providing over $130,000 in direct support to more than 60 incredible individuals. Thanks to donors like you, we've helped cover essentials like medical supplies, home modifications, therapy services, respite care, and more — meeting families where they are, when they need it most.

We believe every family deserves moments of connection and relief—whether that’s a quiet evening at home or simply knowing the next bill is covered.

One of the most cherished ways we bring our mission to life is through our annual Adult Prom Gala — a joyful night of celebration, connection, and purpose. Each year, we introduce a new and exciting theme to keep the event fresh and engaging. While the details change, the heart remains the same. It has become our biggest and most beloved fundraiser, drawing attendees who come for the fun and entertainment, and stay for the mission.

Funds raised during this unforgettable evening directly fuel our ability to continue supporting families throughout the year — making the Gala not just a night to remember, but a night that makes a real difference.

By spreading love through financial assistance and meaningful experiences, we help families reclaim time, joy, and peace in the midst of daily challenges.

Thank you for making this mission possible.
