Miami, FL – October 4, 2014 – Saturday afternoon was all about coming together for a great cause as founding chairman of Growing Together youth group, Alessandra Quintero, hosted the organizations second annual kick-off fundraiser. This inspirational event has become vital to raising awareness and funds for programs and services for Growing Togethers’ monthly activities in the Family Resource Center. The fete recognized its founding members, as well as the newly inducted members of the group. Throughout the afternoon, guests enjoyed delicious champagne and hors d’oeuvres, along with a fabulous silent auction which included items such as one of-a-kind furs, spa and dinner certificates, paintings, gourmet gift baskets and more. Proceeds from the event went to benefit the Chapman Partnership, an organization dedicated to helping homeless men, women, and children in need.
