“Nearly 60% of families in our community are struggling to make ends meet. Branches serves to create opportunities for these children and their families, and with generous support from our community, we know that our students will be able to succeed in school and ultimately attain a higher quality of life”, says Brent McLaughlin, Executive Director of Branches.
The event will take place at the beautiful new Lennar Foundation Medical Center Rooftop Terrace where guests will be able to enjoy wine and beer as well as delicious appetizers and treats provided by the featured restaurants which include: Sushi Maki, Seasons 52, Devon Seafood Grill, Pisco Y Nazca and PizzaRev. DJ Mayner is sure to keep the event fun and lively. At the event, guests will also be able to build a backpack as well as write a note of encouragement for a Branches student in need. Cost to attend the event is a $25 donation online or $30 at the door.
The 1st Annual Back to School Bash is made possible thanks to the Premiere Sponsor, Team FootWorks, as well as Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust and the University of Miami Health System.
