The goal for this year's Miami Country Day School Walk for Cancer  was $50,000.  As of the preliminary tally, Miami Country Day School had raised over

Those kids worked so hard and everyone should be so proud!  You could hear the kids cheering in the loud-speaker "Do it for Harry!"  The walk this year is dedicated to Harry Greenberg, a senior at MCDS who has recently lost his leg to cancer.
To think that all that money … (24 comments)

The Miami Shores Heidi Hewes Chapter of the Women's Cancer Association of the University of Miami (we'll call it The Heidi Hewes Chapter for brevity's sake), just held their monthly meeting at our house.    I know this has nothing to do with Real Estate but feel so proud to be a member of this organization that I need to share.
On the first Wednesday of every month, a local group of women and men meet to plan their fundraising efforts in Miami Shores.  Each meeting is held in a different house every month and we discuss an agenda full of interesting facts … (5 comments)
