F
ood For Thought has been working to fi ght child hunger since 2010
by providing easy, healthy meals for area students in 15 schools who
receive free or reduced school lunches. They fi ll over 1,200 backpacks
per-week with meals to seal the gap between school meals during the
week and days away from campus. The 4th Annual Art of Giving: Kids Edition
is just one of their many events that raises funds for their organization. The event
was presented by Porath & Associates, P.A. and took place overlooking the
beautiful Choctawhatchee Bay in South Walton. Guests enjoyed cocktails and food
provided by Brotula’s Seafood House & Steamer, while supporting the children by
purchasing artwork during the silent auction. The artwork was created by kids at
the Ohana Institute, Northwest Florida Ballet, Noah’s Ark Preschool and Seaside
Neighborhood School along with local artist partners!
