Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami’s annual fundraiser, Hard Hats & High Heels Cocktail and Silent Auction, returns on June 5, from 5:30 to 8 p.m., at Rusty Pelican in Miami.
Now celebrating 10 years, this unforgettable event brings together Miami’s philanthropists, leaders, and changemakers for a night of cocktails, music, and bidding all to help single mothers in the community become homeowners and build lasting stability for their families.
Led by event chair Lydia Sacasa, with co-chair Lourdes Rey-Wilson, sponsorship chair Yesenia Moreno, and emeritus chairs Erbi Blanco-True and Yvonne Debesa, the 10th annual Hard Hats & High Heels is more than a celebration, it’s an evening of impact. Guests will enjoy gourmet hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, a live deejay, and a 360-photo booth, all while bidding on exclusive auction items.
All the proceeds go directly to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami for the construction of a home. To date, this event has empowered nine single moms to achieve their dream of owning a home, giving them a foundation to build brighter futures for themselves and their families.
“Hard Hats & High Heels is one of those nights where people from all over Miami come together for something meaningful,” said Lydia Sacasa, chair of the Hard Hats & High Heels Host Committee 2025. “Yes, it’s fun, you meet great people, enjoy the energy, but at the heart of it, we’re building real change by helping single mothers create safe, stable homes for their families.”
Mario Artecona, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami, said, “This event has become our favorite day in the Habitat calendar. A lot of work goes into planning this, but it is so worthwhile when we see everyone having fun and coming together to help a family achieve the dream of homeownership. We are so grateful to our planning committee for 10 years of selfless and dedicated service to the Habitat mission.”
Rusty Pelican is located at 3201 Rickenbacker Causeway, Key Biscayne, FL 33149. Tickets and more information is available at www.miamihabitat.org/hhhh.
