#WeAreViera WOW. My heart is full. As Chair of the Viera Regional Business Alliance (VRBA) and the entire VRBA Steering Committee…Thank you! 🙏 Yesterday, around this very time, we wrapped up what I can honestly say was one of the most EPIC Mix, Mingle & Jingle events we’ve ever had. And on Giving Tuesday, no less. Our community showed UP. The VRBA hit our fundraising goal of $3,000 to support Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health, and I could not be more proud of what we accomplished together. With over 200 people in the room, we toasted to an incredible 2025 for the VRBA, the ongoing support of our Annual Sponsors, the life-changing work Devereux does in this community, and the joy of this holiday season. This year also had a special moment , hearing from Natasha Cartagena Spencer, our Melbourne Regional Chamber Board Chair, as she closed out the Chamber’s 100th Anniversary Celebration right there in the room with us. Truly unforgettable. And let me just say… our Winter Wonderland theme was EVERYTHING. From the personally decorated trees by our Annual Sponsors (yes, including an actual Money Tree 🤩) to the silent auction items that made guests fight to win our “Viera Experience” gifts was on full display. Thank you to every business and organization in Viera who contributed. You made the magic happen. To the VRBA Annual Sponsors, thank you for riding with us, supporting us, decorating with us, and believing in the impact we make. To our Mix, Mingle, & Jingle Event Sponsors, thank you for adding to the environment and your support this holiday season. And to the entire Melbourne Regional Chamber staff, thank you for being behind us all year long and for helping make last night a success. And last but not least, to my entire VRBA Steering Committee (Edgar Cobos, Arty Pagan, CPCU, CLU, Mark Boyd, Andres Yepes, CFP®️, Heather Hickman, Chris Kern, CFRE, Sharon Ferrelli), THANK YOU for trusting my leadership and being active members, doers, and leaders in our community! As we wrap up 2025, the VRBA is already geared up for 2026. One word: impact. And trust me, we’re ready. Our first event kicks off in February 2026, and I can’t wait to see everyone again. My photos do the event no justice…official coverage to come soon! Happy Holidays, everyone! Thank you for the love, the energy, the generosity, and the joy you brought into that room. Let’s carry it forward. *Annual Champion Sponsor - Community Credit Union of Florida *Annual Leader Sponsors - The Viera Company, W+J Construction Corp., Health First, USSSA *Annual Supporter Sponsors - State Farm Arty Pagan, Shelter Mortgage Company, Viera Builders, Brent People Raymond James Financial Planning *Event Sponsors - Kelley Ford, Nothing Bundt Cakes Viera, @Duda Sod- Oviedo #IamViera #VRBA #Viera #MelbourneRegionalChamber #MRC #Viera #vieraregionalbusinessalliance #holidayparty #networking #FloridaSpaceCoast #BrevardCountyFl #VieraFl #HappyHolidays #holidayparty #community #givingtuesday
