Miami Children’s Hospital Foundation’s annual signature Diamond Ball and South Florida’s grandest charity event will pay tribute to the Hospital’s grateful patients, world-class physicians and generous philanthropists. The spectacular themed elegant black-tie affair with a stylish cocktail soiree will feature entertainment, a sensational silent auction and much more. Miami Children’s Hospital is embarking on an ambitious fundraising campaign – Together For The Children – that will enable us to reach beyond borders to prevent, to detect, to treat and to care for children in our community and around the world, which will be kicked off at the Diamond Ball.
Chaired by Marile & Jorge Luis Lopez, Esq. with Ana & Tony Figueroa Cisneros serving as International Chairs, the Diamond Ball ranks among the top fundraisers in Florida and is recognized by society’s elite as the launch of the South Florida gala season. The gala attracts an esteemed group of business, society and philanthropic notables with strong international connections and a common bond of making a difference in the lives of children. This year we are thrilled to announce the 2013 Hall of Fame Inductee, Juanes, Ground-Breaking Double Grammy and 19-Time Latin Grammy Winning Superstar. We are proud to honor Juanes for his work with children as he has worked extensively in the area of increasing Early Childhood Development throughout Latin America.
