Photo by Lori SaxWith bright smiles and a cheery atmosphere, the Safe Children Coalition welcomed more than 275 attendees to its second Giving Breakfast, held March 14 at Michael’s On East.
During the event, the nonprofit honored four individuals for their work in helping children in the community and serving as advocates for SCC: Melissa Larkin Skinner, CEO Centerstone of Florida; Graci McGilicuddy, co-founder of All Star Children’s Foundation; and Joan and Bob Geyer, with Academy at Glengary and Sunset Automotive Group.
The Safe Children Coalition’s mission is to improve the well-being of children and families in the community, with a specific focus on improving and supporting the child welfare system. Its work entails everything from supporting adoptions and foster parents to providing temporary shelter for children and offering programs that work to prevent child abuse and neglect.
