Mission:
“act4me is a not-for-profit organization established by volunteers dedicated to distributing financial assistance to local families in need whose children require therapy, treatment an care of developmental delays associated with neurological disorders.”
Future Goals:
“As part of our continuing effort, we hope to extend the amount currently planned in our grants so the children can benefit from more hours of therapy. We are launching several campaigns including ‘Kid-to-Kid Giving,’ ‘I Love Giving in Key Biscayne,’ and ‘Monthly Theme Dinners.’ In 2010, several events are being planned, such as a Mardi-Gras-themed dinner party, a Casino & Game night, as well as our End of the Year Annual Gala.”
