Fort Lauderdale’s Charity Guild has a purpose that is straightforward and impactful — to raise funds to provide healthcare and social services for medically fragile, disadvantaged and emotionally challenged children in Broward County. In the last 20 years alone, they have raised more then $2,000,000 for the Children’s Diagnostic & Treatment Center (CDTC) and Kids In Distress (KID) through their annual Spring Luncheon and famous Fall Event. Did you know that every $1 spent at CDTC in early prevention for developmental delays saves $7 in future intervention? A child’s visit to a CDTC clinic costs $63, while that same service at an emergency room could be well over $500. Similarly, the average cost of a single juvenile incarceration per year is over $40,000. KID counsels and trains over 5,000 children and their families with complex needs to provide safe and loving homes. The time to act is now; CharityGuild.net.
