Emceed by Local 10 News Anchor Laurie Jennings, the luncheon brings together more than 500 guests including attorneys, judges, elected officials, community leaders, volunteers and supporters to recognize those individuals, corporations and organizations that have made a significant contribution in the area of child abuse and neglect in Miami-Dade County.
Special recognition will be given to those who have been a voice for the children in our community time and again over the course of Voices for Children Foundation’s 31 years.
Tickets are $150 per person, and tables of ten are available at $1,500. For information, contact Carolina Alofonso at 786-469-3856 or by email at CAlfonso@BeAVoice.org.
About Voices For Children Foundation
Voices For Children Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that raises funds to help ensure that abused, abandoned, and neglected children in Miami-Dade County each have a court-appointed Guardian ad Litem and that financial assistance and other resources are available for their health, educational, and social needs. Guardians ad Litem are trained, court-appointed adults who serve as their representative voices in dependency court proceedings. Currently, over 3,600 children are in Miami-Dade County’s Foster Care system and only 66% of children are unrepresented by Guardians ad Litem. For more information, please visit www.BeAVoice.org.
