27th Annual Be A Voice Luncheon
Benefitting Voices for Children Foundation, over 500 citizen superheroes gathered at the Loews Coral Gables to fund advocacy, experiences and basic necessities for children in foster care.
Voices For Children Foundation hosted its 27th Annual Be A Voice Luncheon at the Loews Coral Gables with support from the presenting sponsor, Stearns Weaver Miller. This year’s signature fundraiser saw historic attendance and raised over $230,000 to fund the gap in state funding for the Guardian ad Litem program in addition to VFC’s programmatic initiatives which serve as the safety net for children in foster care. There are currently more than 1,600 children in foster care in Miami-Dade County.
For the past 27 years, over 450 attorneys, judges, elected officials, and community leaders have gathered annually to support VFC’s efforts to fund court representation through the Guardian Ad Litem program which advocates for their rights, needs and permanency.
VFC funding provides children in foster care with basic needs including hygiene items, school supplies and clothing as well as exposure to life skills and unique experiences which not only boost their self-esteem but allows them to dream beyond their circumstances.
To continue to stay engaged and committed to VFC’s mission, individuals can find out more
