A Night of Fashion and Music for Neurodivergent Youth
Designer Giannina Azar and Latin Grammy winners Tony Succar and Albita headline the Supreme Twins Foundation 2nd Annual Gala.
MIAMI, FL – September 12, 2026. Born from a family’s journey raising twin daughters with special needs, the Supreme Twins Foundation gathered nearly 400 South Florida civic, business and philanthropic leaders at the JW Marriott Marquis Miami for its 2nd Annual Gala and Fashion Show. The evening featured high fashion and award-winning performances, but its heart was expanding education and developmental support for children and young adults with disabilities as they move into adulthood.
The gala raised funds for three community initiatives: PAP, which helps families access the psychological assessments and other resources insurers require to begin services; Artistic Expression, which offers inclusive art and music programs showcased by students during a performance at the gala; and Special Continuing Education, which includes the Foundation’s partnership with Miami Dade College (MDC) on the ACCESS Program and EmpowerU Summer Camp, giving neurodivergent youth education, vocational training and life skills.
The program included over 30 couture designs by Dominican-Lebanese designer Giannina Azar, whose creations have dressed Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez. Latin Grammy winner Tony Succar and his orchestra headlined the music, with a special guest performance by Albita Rodríguez and a silent auction of items donated by Jimmy Choo, artist Rigo León and David Yurman.
Through it all, the night stayed anchored on family. Co-founders Ilieva and Miguel Valdés started the Foundation while caring for their twin daughters, Nathaly and Nicolee, who were diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), a rare genetic disorder that affects physical and cognitive development and requires lifelong specialized care.
“This foundation was born out of love and the determination to build a better future for our daughters. When our twin girls were diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome, we realized how overwhelming this journey is for parents. Tonight is about showing these families that they are not alone.”

The Foundation also supports young adults as they age out of school services. Under state and federal law, public education services end at age 22, and families often face an abrupt drop in daily care, therapies and routines. Through its collaboration with MDC, the Foundation keeps educational and vocational resources open to young adults during this transition.
During the gala, MDC President Madeline Pumariega, Miami-Dade County Tax Collector Dariel Fernandez and television icon Mario Luis Kreutzberger Blumenfeld (“Don Francisco”) were recognized for their commitment to youth with disabilities.
“Seeing our community come together proves that when we invest in these children and young adults, we enrich everyone. Turning 22 shouldn’t mean the end. It should be the beginning of a new chapter.”
