Annual Honorary Mayor Race Supports Local Charitable Organizations

Candidates participate in a monthlong campaign and select local nonprofit organizations to benefit from funds generated through campaign activities. The candidate raising the highest amount receives the Honorary Mayor title, connecting the annual program with charitable organizations serving residents and families throughout the East Hillsborough area.

Glaros participated in the 2026 campaign through a series of fundraising activities held during June. His campaign generated $121,746.56, setting a new individual fundraising record for the annual program. The proceeds were designated for High 5 Inc., Impact Program Inc., and Raining Cats and Dogs Shelter and Sanctuary, three organizations serving different needs within the surrounding community.

The 2026 Honorary Mayor race generated a combined $169,643.99 for local charitable organizations. Glaros participated alongside Chris Ciulla, whose campaign raised $47,897.43 for Forgotten Angels and ECHO. Ciulla was subsequently recognized as the program’s first Deputy Mayor, adding a new designation to the annual campaign while recognizing the fundraising accomplished by both participants.

The combined total represented a record for the Honorary Mayor program and distributed support among five charitable organizations. The campaign included multiple community fundraising events during June before the final results were announced at the program’s wrap-up gathering on July 13, 2026. Additional information about the results and participating organizations was reported in the Osprey Observer’s coverage of the record-setting Honorary Mayor campaign.
