Experience a Fairytale Evening at Vista’s Starlight Benefit

The enchanted world of fairy tales will be brought to life at the Water’s Edge Resort and Spa in Westbrook on April 29 for Vista Life Innovations’ annual Starlight Benefit spring fundraiser and social event.

Open to community members, the Vista Starlight Benefit is a spirited event featuring live and silent auctions, a cocktail function, dinner and entertainment. Funds raised by the event support the many programs and services of Vista Life Innovations, a community-based program supporting the personal success of individuals with disabilities.

The honoree for this year’s fairytale-themed event is Tina Dattilo, vice president of the Water’s Edge Resort and Spa. Tina has spent her entire career in the hospitality industry, going above and beyond to help make people’s dreams come true. She also strives to support local organizations, including Vista, however she can. Vista is proud to honor Tina for her work and the role she plays within the community.

Last year’s castaway-themed Starlight Benefit drew nearly 250 people and net over $100,000. Of the net proceeds, more than $48,000 was raised during a unique live auction for Vista’s Student/Member Enrichment Fund, which underwrites special projects and initiatives that directly benefit students and members in Vista’s programs.

Tickets for Vista’s Starlight Benefit: A Fairytale Evening start at $100. Guests are encouraged to come dressed as their favorite fairytale character.
