“This is the first event of the season, and we want to do it right,” says Parkland Cares executive director Stacey Udine. “And there’s no better way to kick-off event season than by having a turbo-charged event at Carrio Motors, bringing together some of South Florida most philanthropic and generous donors, business leaders, and community leaders to network.  The Ultimate Night Out will have high-end food, wine, and entertainment by a Brazilian dance troupe.” 

Guests will dine on lobster rolls, beef tenderloin sliders, and a sample of caviar while sipping Provocativo champagne. Rare Rolls Royces, Lamborghinis, Ferraris, McLarens, and Maseratis will surround the room.  A live auction from Grandstand Sports and Memorabilia will feature an extensive selection of items that will entice every sports fan, music lover, and gifts giver.

The event is once again presented by Broward Health, which has been a sponsor from the very first Ultimate Night Out. “By participating in this event, we are actively advocating for improved mental health services and resources within our community,” says Broward Health Coral Springs Chief Nursing Officer Melissa Leamon. “I am proud to stand alongside the community, as we work together to raise awareness and funds for mental health.

Statistics show that mental health issues are on the rise. At the same time, access to care is becoming more difficult, notes Parkland Cares founder Howard Dvorkin, CPA. “The world has no shortage of tragedy, but I believe we owe it to our communities and ourselves to help our neighbors who are suffering,” Dvorkin says. “Parkland Cares is our way of doing that.”

New to the Parkland Cares donor list is Amazon, which has recently expanded its charitable giving in South Florida. “Amazon is proud to support Parkland Cares’ work in providing funding and awareness for trauma care and mental health services in the South Florida community,” says Angelica Santibanez, Amazon’s Community Engagement Lead for South Florida. “We hope our investment and commitment to Parkland Cares will further their mission to the local community.”
