JAFCO’s Gala Alfresco…A Breath of Fresh Air...Under the Stars will take place poolside at The Polo Club of Boca Raton Jan. 23.
This event, dedicated to raising funds for abused and neglected children and those with developmental disabilities in South Florida, will offer those comfortable dining outdoors an opportunity to enjoy an evening out to celebrate JAFCO’s lifesaving mission.
Virtual livestream participation will be available for those who prefer to celebrate from the comfort of their home.
The evening will be highlighted by the presentation of the prestigious Jacob’s Ladder Award for Child Advocacy to two couples who have been dedicated to protecting abused and neglected children in our community. Recipients are Gayle Coleman Rader (posthumously) and Stuart Rader, and Maggie and Stewart Greenberg.
“The Gala is a perfect way to start the year as our first in-person event since the pandemic began,” said JAFCO Director of Fundraising & Special Events Janet Epstein. “A fresh year, a fresh start and fresh air; we can’t wait to see the incredible members of our JAFCO community.”
The evening’s proceeds will directly touch the lives of the children it serves.
