A Season of Light and Giving in Tierra Verde
On Saturday, December 6, Tierra Verde shimmered with more than twinkling lights—it glowed with generosity, togetherness, and the unmistakable warmth of community. The 15th Annual Tierra Verde Tree Lighting Celebration brought neighbors, families, sponsors, and volunteers together for an evening that celebrated the spirit of the season while making a meaningful difference beyond our shoreline. Stroll Magazine Tierra Verde proudly sponsored the event and joined in on the fun chatting with neighbors and enjoying all the festivities and spreading holiday cheer!

Laughter echoed across the gathering as friends reunited and new connections were made beneath the illuminated tree. The event was a joyful reminder of what makes Tierra Verde special: a community that shows up for one another. From festive smiles to heartfelt conversations, the night captured the essence of the holidays—connection, compassion, and cheer.
At the heart of the evening was a powerful mission: supporting the Lealman Fire Department Christmas Outreach Program. Thanks to the generosity of attendees, sponsors, and volunteers, toys and donations were collected to help provide a special Christmas for hundreds of qualifying families in the Lealman community—recognized as the most economically challenged area in Pinellas County.
This outreach program ensures that children and families experience the joy, dignity, and hope that the holidays can bring. The impact of each donated toy and every dollar given will be felt long after the lights are packed away.
The TLC Foundation of Tierra Verde extends a heartfelt THANK YOU to Team Twinkle—our extraordinary volunteers and our amazing sponsors—whose time, energy, and generosity made this event possible. Your commitment turned a festive evening into a force for good.
As we reflect on another memorable year, we’re already counting down to the next celebration.
Save the Date: December 5, 2026
We look forward to welcoming the community back for another night of lights, laughter, and giving.
