The Education Fund to Honor 20 Prestigious Public School Alumni
A new class of successful public school alumni will be honored at The Education Fund's For the Love of Art Annual Charity Auction & Honoree Celebration, presented by Ocean Bank, on Tuesday, June 26 at the Loews Miami Beach. The fundraiser features original student and teacher artwork, using materials from the nonprofit's Ocean Bank Center for Educational Materials, and hundreds of luxury items - all up for bid. Proceeds support Education Fund programs and art programs in Miami-Dade County Public Schools.
The Sapoznik Insurance Public School Alumni Achievement Awards will cap off the event, which is The Education Fund's largest fundraiser. Each year, the nonprofit honors leading public school graduates in various industries, demonstrating that with a public school education, you can achieve amazing success. A hallmark of all the honorees is that they have made an impact on the economic vitality of Miami-Dade County.
