Inviting The Community At The Club At Boca Pointe

Boca Pointe Cares 4kids

Inviting Boca Pointe Community Residents
The Club at Boca Pointe is
excited to host our second annual
Boca Pointe Cares Classic on
Saturday, September 28. We will
raise money to support 4KIDS and
the Heritage Cares Foundation,
which provide immediate help to
people in crisis. Proceeds will be
split evenly between both critical causes. We invite everyone
in the Boca Pointe Community to save the date and join us!
A Home for Every Child
On average, six to ten children a day in South Florida are
removed from their homes and placed into the foster care system
due to abuse, neglect, and abandonment. Whether it’s a family in
crisis, siblings entering the foster care system, or a child in need
of trauma-informed therapy, 4KIDS is there to provide hope,
homes, and healing to those in need. Every donation directly
impacts children and teens in crisis, offering them the chance
for a better future. No matter the amount, your support helps High Holidays Membership
transform the lives of the most vulnerable.
