‘Uncle Nick’ documentary debuts at Miracle Theater

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

In celebration of 22 years of impactful service, A Safe Haven for Newborns held the premiere of its documentary “Uncle Nick” at Actors Playhouse at the Miracle Theater on August 24. This film, that brought tears to many, shines a light on the remarkable journey of the organization and the profound impact it has had on countless lives. Guests enjoyed cocktails followed by the screening of the documentary during which the film, “Uncle Nick,” takes you on a journey through the founding of A Safe Haven for Newborns by Nick Silverio, affectionately known as “Uncle Nick.” Created in loving memory of his late wife, whose life was tragically cut short by a speeding driver, the Gloria M. Silverio Foundation operates as a 501(C) 3 non-profit organization committed to preventing the heart-wrenching occurrence of infant abandonment.

Produced by Accord Productions of Miami, the documentary captures the evolution of A Safe Haven for Newborns from its humble beginnings to its extraordinary achievements.

With 379 saved babies and the assistance provided to countless distressed mothers, the foundation’s impact on reducing infant abandonment in Florida to nearly zero is nothing short of inspiring. It showcases how Nick Silverio transformed personal tragedy into a life-saving mission.

“Uncle Nick” is not just a film; it’s a testament to human resilience, compassion, and the capacity to transform adversity into a force for good. This story aligns perfectly with the kind of narratives audiences value and appreciate. While this event served as a fundraiser, the upcoming gala on October 28, 2023, is a big date to save.
