Options for Community Living, Inc. (Options) is excited to announce the honorees for its third annual signature fundraiser, Murder Mystery – Death of a Gangster: A 1920s Murder Mystery, taking place on Friday, September 26, 2025, from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM at The Bayview House at Captain Bill’s in Bay Shore, NY.
Guests will step back in time to the Roaring Twenties for an unforgettable evening of mystery, dinner, dancing, and philanthropy—all in support of Options’ mission to provide housing and support services for Long Islanders living with mental illness, chronic health conditions such as HIV/AIDS, and those at risk of homelessness.
This year, Options is proud to recognize two outstanding community leaders:
Catalyst of Change – Corporate Partner: FourLeaf
A steadfast advocate for mental health and community wellness, FourLeaf is being honored for its exceptional support of local nonprofits and long-standing commitment to social impact. Leading this partnership is Tara Labriola, Vice President of Retail Banking at FourLeaf Federal Credit Union and an engaged member of Options’ Board of Directors. Her leadership has been instrumental in advancing the organization’s mission and expanding its reach.
Visionary Volunteer Award: Tommy DiMisa, Vanguard Benefits
A dynamic and passionate advocate for the nonprofit sector, Tommy DiMisa is widely recognized for his tireless energy, dedication, and impact across Long Island. Through his leadership, public presence, and deep connections in the community, he continues to amplify the work of mission-driven organizations and elevate voices that often go unheard.
“We are so proud to honor FourLeaf and Tommy DiMisa, two changemakers who lead with compassion and action,” said Yolanda Robano-Gross, Chief Executive Officer of Options for Community Living, Inc. “Their contributions help us extend hope and essential services to individuals and families facing some of life’s most difficult challenges.”
This signature fundraiser brings together business leaders, community members, and supporters for a night of fun, philanthropy and purpose. All proceeds directly benefit Options’ programs, that provide housing, care coordination, and supportive services to individuals living with mental illness, chronic health conditions including HIV/AIDS, and those who are at risk for homelessness.
