Our firm was pleased to take part in the 21st Annual Light Up Downtown event at the Plaza on Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale. Presented by Michele and Joe Maiuro, this event benefited the Jack & Jill Center. The mission of the center is to strengthen families and their children through innovative educational programs and community involvement.
The event, held on November 29th, included cocktails, appetizers, festive entertainment, and a grand tree lighting. Sagemont Tax was a “Super Star” sponsor of this Jack & Jill event, and helped contribute to the $145,000 raised this year for the center!
