Guests enjoyed a cocktail hour, silent and live auctions, dinner, awards, dancing, and a photo booth. Master of Ceremonies Lisa Petrillo, Entertainment and Lifestyle Reporter for WFOR, CBS4 Miami, led guests through an incredible evening of entertainment and fun.

David Kubiliun, Esq. of Greenspoon Marder and Stephen Greenberger of Broward County Sheriff's Office co-chaired the event. "I am always so inspired by all of the incredible people I meet who are involved with DDF, so it was my pleasure to co-chair this event for the fifth year," said David Kubiliun, DDF Board Member. "I'm proud to be a part of Debbie's Dream Foundation. It's such an honor to co-chair this event and I'm really looking forward to next year," said Greenberger, also a DDF Board Member. Event sponsors included Title Sponsor Lilly Oncology; Diamond Sponsors Boston Biomedical and Sheridan Healthcare, an Envision Company; Emerald Sponsors Greenspoon Marder, Merck & Co., Inc., Ross and Liz Tannenbaum, and Debbie Zelman and Andrew Guttman; and Ruby Sponsors Memorial Hospital West Medical Staff and Laura and Judd Zebersky.

"I am so excited to have celebrated the 8th anniversary of Debbie's Dream which also coincides with my 9th cancerversary with so many loyal supporters," said Debbie Zelman, President and Founder of DDF. "The money we raise at our signature Dream Makers Gala directly impacts stomach cancer patients by raising awareness and funds for research, support, education, and advocacy. For a disease that receives the least amount of federal funding per cancer death, the funds raised will make a tremendous impact, and we appreciate all of the support we have gotten from the community."
