Close to 300 guests attended Best Foot Forward’s sold-out event and helped generate more than $250,000 to support the needs of children in foster care beyond the academic support the organization provides. Examples include medical expenses such as contact lenses or glasses and orthopedic braces as well as gas cards and Uber rides to enable youths to get where they need to go. ‘This was a memorable event, and we raised a significant amount of money to support student essentials like birthday celebrations, field trip money, senior year activities, groceries and college summer housing, which are often overlooked but are extremely important,’ co-founder Donna Biase said.
