BONITA SPRINGS, FL, UNITED STATES, September 1, 2025 /EINPresswire / -- 4KIDS Southwest Florida invites the community to its annual benefit dinner, Tides of Change, on Saturday, October 25, 2025, at Worthington Country Club in Bonita Springs.

This year's keynote speaker is Peter Mutabazi, a foster and adoptive dad, international advocate, and founder of Now I Am Known.

Today, he shares his story around the world, encouraging others to see the hope in every child's story. Peter has been featured on national platforms such as Good Morning America, The TODAY Show, and CBS This Morning.

In addition to Peter's inspiring message, the evening will feature an exclusive auction with unique experiences, including a day out on a fishing charter boat and a private dinner with Peter Mutabazi himself.

“This event reflects what we believe is possible when a community comes together to turn the tide for kids who need safety, healing, and hope,” said Rick Jacobs, Executive Director of 4KIDS Southwest Florida.“We are excited to gather with partners, churches, and friends across the region to fuel life-changing care for children and families.”
