Fort Lauderdale, FL (October 28, 2024) – In the season of goodwill, giving, and caring for others, Children’s Harbor is excited to name Bernheim Kelley, a preeminent personal injury law firm based in Fort Lauderdale, FL, as the presenting sponsor of its annual boat parade watch party– a commitment that will extend hope to teens and families well beyond the holidays. The community is encouraged to support the Children's Harbor Boat Parade Watch Party, presented by Bernheim Kelley Injury Lawyers, by purchasing tickets to the event that will take place on Saturday, December 14, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Shooters Waterfront, located at 3033 NE 32nd Ave. in Fort Lauderdale.
Children’s Harbor is a nationally accredited organization that provides safe shelter and support to teens in foster care while strengthening families in our community. With a main campus in Pembroke Pines, Children’s Harbor provides a supportive environment for teenagers and their siblings, with programs focused on supporting the family as a whole. Their services include free in-home counseling to prevent children from entering foster care and a Maternity Home program for safe teen mother intergenerational living. For over 27 years, Children’s Harbor has been a sanctuary of hope and healing for children affected by abuse, thanks to support from sponsors like Bernheim Kelley.
“We’re incredibly thankful to Bernheim Kelley for stepping up as our presenting sponsor. They are heart deep and mission focused and that level of commitment truly empowers us to provide the critical interventions at Children’s Harbor that wouldn’t be possible without private funding,” said Tiffani Dhooge, President and CEO of Children’s Harbor. “With partners like them in our corner, we can reach even higher for our kids.”
The distinguished personal injury law firm stands as a champion for those who have suffered due to another’s negligence. With unwavering dedication, Bernheim Kelley fights for real justice, working tirelessly to ensure that every client receives the full compensation they deserve for their physical, emotional, and financial losses.
"As legal advocates for our Florida community, Bernheim Kelley believes that giving back is just as vital as the justice we fight for in the courtroom," said Jesse Bernheim, founder of Bernheim Kelley. "Our partnership with Children’s Harbor, and our role as Presenting Sponsor of the Boat Parade Watch Party, reflects our deep commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of at-risk foster youth. As a board member of Children’s Harbor, I’m proud to lead our firm’s efforts to uplift those who need a real advocate, helping to build a brighter future for our community’s children."
This commitment to community service not only drives Children’s Harbor initiatives but also invites everyone to come together in celebration, as supporters are welcome to join the festivities. Attendees will enjoy an open bar, an all-you-can-eat feast, and the most coveted view of Fort Lauderdale’s top holiday experience with front-row seats to the dazzling display of twinkling lights and festive decorations as boats cruise past the restaurant’s waterway in the Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade route.
