At this event, attendees will recognize and celebrate survivors of traumatic injury and their families, as well as the first responders and healthcare professionals who saved their lives and helped them on their road to recovery.

A ticket purchase includes dinner, dessert, and drinks. Attendees will get to view the premiere of short films about the three trauma survivor honorees, followed by an invitation to take to the dance floor.
The event will take place on Friday, May 2 at 6:30 p.m. at Haven, which is located at 2515 6th Ave S, Birmingham, AL 35233. Tickets are $40. The last day to purchase tickets is April 24. Purchase tickets for the event here.
“Last year’s event was wonderful, providing a great opportunity to recognize our patients' hard work in recovery and the positive impact on their support systems,” Lea Melvin, R.N. UED Trauma Lead said. “It was also a joy for our team to celebrate together in a stress-free environment. It truly reminded me how blessed we are to have these resources and to be a part of this mission.”
