FOR A GOOD CAUSE

    Yesterday a hundred of our best friends came over for a fund-raiser.  We auctioned off donated art to support the Florida Health Justice Project.

  A hundred people filled up our backyard.

       Miriam Harmatz, FHJP's chief legal counsel, shared her concerns about our country's broken healthcare system. 






Donators Two
The Grove Guy's Neighborhood Tour sold for $60.  Rocky Lyons donated two visits to his South Miami salon. Luis' Quirky Car Tour netted eighty bucks.

We heard an rousing speech by one of our country's leaders in  public health, Miami Beach native Paul Nathanson.

     The Florida Health Justice Project promotes laws that provide accesa to quality health care for people in great need.  These are primarily immigrants, the elderly, and others who can not afford rising medical costs.

      Our generous friends made it possible to raise over $7000 for the FHJP.  We thank them and everyone else who pitched in to make last night's event a success.
