Amigos For Kids, a Miami-based nonprofit organization focused on preventing child abuse and neglect, announces its signature annual fundraiser is back with a new name and venue. Amigos Night (formerly Miami Celebrity Domino Night) will take place on Saturday, September 30, 2023, at The Hangar in Coconut Grove.
With the support of Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino as title sponsor and Bacardi USA as presenting sponsor, the event will offer guests a culinary pavilion featuring local flavors provided by some of Miami’s top chefs and restaurants serving dinner by the bite. Over the last several years, the event attracted record numbers of attendees, and has featured Miami’s celebrities, media personalities, elected officials, and civic and business leaders.
At Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood, we’re not just about fun and entertainment. Integral to our brand is making a meaningful impact in our communities. One of Hard Rock’s mottos is, ‘Love all, serve all,’ and we are proud to be the title sponsor for Amigos Night. We share Amigos For Kids’ commitment to the well-being of children and families,” said Bo Guidry, President of Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood.
Maggie Fresen, Board Chair, expressed her gratitude, stating, “On behalf of the Board of Directors and the thousands of children we are able to reach every year, we thank our sponsors and supporters who are vital to continuing Amigos’ mission. With their support, we cultivate unity and compassion, ensuring that children have the opportunity to grow, succeed, and build a brighter future.”
The night will feature a performance by the Miami HEAT DJ Irie and live entertainment by Extasy. Adding to the excitement, a silent auction will feature items such as art, sports memorabilia, jewelry, travel expeditions, and more.
“Amigos Night rallies together supporters, sponsors, and the community at large to contribute generously toward our mission. This fundraiser serves as a platform for raising awareness about the challenges families face and highlights the positive impact that Amigos For Kids has on their lives,” said Karina Pavone, President and CEO of Amigos For Kids.
The event’s primary goal is to generate funds for Amigos For Kids’ programs and services that empower families. Recognizing the importance of a nurturing environment for children, Amigos For Kids provides resources such as after-school programs, parent education, and support for struggling families.
