Thank You for Making the 2026 Show of Love Gala Unforgettable
Our best year yet.
To everyone who sponsored, purchased tickets, attended, donated, volunteered, and celebrated with us, thank you. Because of your support, this year’s Show of Love Gala was our most impactful yet.

A Powerful Moment
Watching Mark walk across the stage was one of the most moving moments of the night, a powerful reminder of resilience, possibility, and the future we are building together.
Special Thanks to Our Gala Chairs
Thank you to Ryan and Stephanie Burks for your leadership, generosity, and belief in this mission. Your support helped make this incredible evening possible.

Relive the Night
From unforgettable moments on stage to celebration throughout the evening, this year’s gala showed what is possible when community comes together in love and support.






The Limitless Love Sculpture
The celebration continues through our permanent art installation. The Limitless Love Sculpture is a custom steel work inspired by Mark’s first steps in an exoskeleton, guided by his mother, Ronda, and it will live in our new facility.
For a $200 donation, you can claim a shape, share your answer to “What is love?”, and leave your mark on what comes next. 100% of proceeds support Split Second Foundation.
