Grammy-nominated songwriter Ali Tamposi and former NFL wide receiver Pierre Garçon attended the First Haitian Baptist Church Children’s Christmas Gift Giveaway and the unveiling of its new Enrichment Center in Belle Glade. The 4,500-square-foot center replaces a 1940s building that housed the after-school program for children for the past 25 years. Donations of $600,000 have been raised for the center, but an equal amount is still needed.
