BBX Capital and its affiliated companies partnered with Galleria Fort Lauderdale, Neighbors 4 Neighbors, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Bluegreen Vacations, and Community Foundation of Broward to support the “Adopt-a-Family 4 the Holidays” Holiday Heroes Breakfast presented by BBX Capital at the Galleria Fort Lauderdale. At the event, 91 families with children battling cancer were served breakfast, given gifts from Santa, and enjoyed other fun holiday activities courtesy of BBX Capital and its partners.
Families referred to the program were treated to a catered breakfast underwritten by Bluegreen Vacations during the event. They also received wrapped presents and gift cards, which Santa personally delivered. The children got a chance to take photos with Santa, courtesy of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, and were pleasantly surprised by special appearances from Spiderman and Wonder Woman.
