The lights of the Casino Royale Gala illuminated the night sky as philanthropists and supporters gathered at the luxurious Grand Ballroom of the JW Marriott in downtown Miami. The annual event, hosted by Baptist Health Care, brought together the city’s elite for an evening of glamour and charitable giving.
Guests arrived in their finest attire, ready to try their luck at the casino tables and bid on coveted auction items. The air was filled with excitement and anticipation as the evening kicked off with a cocktail reception, complete with champagne and hors d’oeuvres.
As the night progressed, guests were treated to a gourmet dinner prepared by award-winning chefs, followed by a live auction featuring once-in-a-lifetime experiences and luxury items. Bidders went head-to-head for the chance to win exclusive vacations, designer jewelry, and VIP tickets to sporting events.
The highlight of the evening was the announcement of the total funds raised for Baptist Health Care. Cheers and applause filled the room as it was revealed that over $290,000 had been raised to support the organization’s mission of providing high-quality healthcare to the community.
“We are overwhelmed by the generosity of our supporters,” said Dr. Karen Smith, President of Baptist Health Care. “This event not only raises critical funds, but also brings our community together to show their support for our organization. We are grateful for each and every donation.”
