BROOKLYN, NY, UNITED STATES, April 23, 2026 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — DeafBlind and Deaf Disabled Children of Tomorrow (DBDDCT) announces the return of its signature fundraiser, Casino Night<\/a>, taking place this spring in New York City. Now entering its third year, the event continues to grow as a powerful gathering of community, advocacy, and celebration with attendees committed to expanding opportunities for Deaf, DeafBlind, and Deaf Disabled children and families.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s event will feature Zavier Sabio, host of ASL Slam and proud alumnus of St. Francis de Sales School for the Deaf (SFDS), as the evening\u2019s Master of Ceremonies. His presence reflects the full-circle impact of the SFDS community, where students grow into leaders who continue to shape and uplift the next generation.<\/p>\n

Proceeds from Casino Night 2026 will directly support SFDS programs, including student education, family engagement, and community-driven initiatives designed to create access and opportunity beyond the classroom.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past two years, Casino Night has grown into something truly special,\u201d said Dr. Jodi L. Falk, Executive Director of SFDS. \u201cWhat started as a fundraising event has become a meaningful celebration of our community. I\u2019m looking forward to coming together again this year to honor that growth and continue building something lasting for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

For families, the impact of this work is deeply personal.
\u201cAs a parent, I\u2019ve seen firsthand how important spaces like this are, not just for funding, but for connection and visibility,\u201d said Lia Bautista, SFDS parent spokesperson and Treasurer of DBDDCT board. \u201cCasino Night brings people together in a way that reminds us we are not alone. It\u2019s about community, support, and creating real opportunities for our children to thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n
