The Wings of Possibility Gala is Set for April 25, 2025

The Wings of Possibilities Gala celebrates the transformative impact Intensive Education Academy (IEA) has on the lives of our students and their families. This year's highly anticipated event will take place on April 25, 2025, at The Hartford Golf Club. Join us for an unforgettable evening featuring unique live and silent auctions, a gourmet dinner, inspiring speakers, and more.

Funds raised during the Gala will directly support IEA's mission to empower students with learning differences to reach their full potential. Your participation helps us create life-changing opportunities for our students, including new vans that will expand learning beyond our campus and into the community. By sponsoring and attending the Gala, you’ll make a meaningful impact for our students.

2024

On March 8, 2024 IEA held its annual Gala at the Farmington Polo Club in Farmington. Nearly 150 guests joined in the celebration which included dinner, dancing, raffles, silent, and live auctions. Scot Haney, of WFSB Channel 3, once again was the emcee and auctioneer. Scot was a friend of IEA's founder, Sister Helen Dowd, and has been a longtime supporter of the school. The night was a memorable evening and honored Sister Helen by raising funds for an outdoor amphitheater to be built this summer in her memory. IEA is grateful to all the sponsors, donors, and attendees who made this evening possible!
