Best Foot Forward (BFF) celebrated a major milestone at its annual BFF Bash, themed “Cheers to 15 Years!” Held at Boca West Country Club, the event raised over $1.5 million to support the organization’s mission of providing foster care and at-risk youth in Palm Beach County with an opportunity for academic and lifelong success.
The 15-year anniversary theme set the tone for a truly memorable evening, recognizing the incredible strides BFF has made in supporting foster and at-risk youth — from kindergarten through college and beyond. More than just a fundraiser, the Bash was a powerful celebration of the lives transformed through educational advocacy and unwavering community support.
Special guests included students currently enrolled in BFF’s programs, as well as past Honorary Chairs and recipients of the Champion of Children Award. A highlight of the evening was a moving speech from Bahaa, a proud BFF alum, who shared his remarkable story of perseverance and achievement, offering a moving testament to the organization’s impact.
