ReEmployAbility is proud to continue its longstanding partnership with The Spring of Tampa Bay as a Satchel Sponsor for the 9th Annual Handbags & Happy Hour fundraising event. For nearly a decade, ReEmployAbility has remained committed to supporting survivors of domestic violence and advancing vital programs that promote safety, healing, and long-term independence.

Handbags & Happy Hour, one of Tampa Bay’s most anticipated philanthropic events, will take place this spring and feature an evening of elegant handbags, shopping, cocktails, and inspiring speakers—all while benefiting The Spring of Tampa Bay. Proceeds from the event directly support emergency shelter services, advocacy, and outreach programs that empower survivors and their families throughout the community.

As a consistent advocate for social responsibility, ReEmployAbility is honored to stand alongside The Spring of Tampa Bay for the ninth consecutive year, reinforcing its dedication to meaningful community impact.

“Handbags & Happy Hour was my first introduction to The Spring nearly a decade ago, and it forever changed the way I understood the realities of domestic violence in our community,” said Debra Livingston, CEO of ReEmployAbility. “This event is powerful reminder that when businesses come together with purpose, we can help create safety, hope, and brighter futures for survivors.”

Through continued sponsorship and community engagement, ReEmployAbility remains committed to supporting organizations that make a tangible difference. Handbags & Happy Hour exemplifies the power of collective action in strengthening lives, families, and communities.
