Your support truly made the season brighter and happier for so many.

✨ 12 Days to New Year’s ✨   Day 11 – Highlighting November 2024! In November, we were honored to recognize Lisa Lutoff Perlo and Andre Perlo for their exceptional contributions to United Way of Broward County at the Tocqueville Society's Annual Holiday Event. The Tocqueville Society is a group of philanthropic leaders who make significant investments  to make a lasting impact on adults, children, and seniors in our community. A big thank you to JM Family Enterprises for hosting these leaders aboard the Gallant Lady and to everyone who joined us for this memorable evening!

✨ 12 Days to New Year’s ✨   Day 10 – Highlighting October 2024! In October, United Way of Broward County celebrated the opening of the latest  Born Learning Trail at Renaissance Park in Lauderhill. This interactive trail provides families with a unique opportunity to turn everyday moments into valuable learning experiences for children, promoting early childhood development through fun outdoor activities. The Born Learning Trail encourages families to engage with children through simple, playful activities that support language, literacy, and social skills. A special thank you to all the community leaders, local businesses, and student volunteers who partnered with us to bring this project to life!

✨12 Days to New Year’s✨ Day 9 – Highlighting September 2024! In September, United Way of Broward County’s NextGen United gathered for a Day of Service at Flamingo Gardens. After enjoying a happy hour by the Flamingo Pond, the group participated in a volunteer project focused on animal enrichment. They learned about the different types of enrichment — physical, food, sensory, and cognitive — and how these activities encourage natural instincts, exploration, and exercise in the animals. The group also got creative by crafting Halloween-themed enrichments to help the animals join in the Harvest Festival fun.

✨12 Days to New Year’s✨ Day 8 – Highlighting August 2024! In August, United Way of Broward County’s MISSION UNITED Backpack Drive provided over 900 backpacks filled with essential supplies to children of Veteran families.

A huge thank you to all who contributed and volunteered — your support made a lasting impact!
