In 2023, Lakewood Ranch's Sisterhood for Good granted $110,800 to area nonprofits.
Could it be done again?
On Friday night, Lakewood Ranches' Sisters presented "Phantom: A Masquerade Ball" at the Sarasota Hyatt Regency. More than 250 people attended and while the final numbers have yet to be tallied, the event and its silent and live auctions should propel Sisterhood for Good toward another record year of philanthropy.
Those who attended donned masks and period outfits to fit the theme for the night. Jonathan Cortez provided the live music that included some favorites from "Phantom of the Opera."
