Our publisher, the Palm Beach Board of Realtors, has partnered with Adopt-A-Family of the Palm Beaches, Inc. as our 2018 charity. Since 1983, Adopt-A-Family has grown into the largest service provider for homeless families in Palm Beach County -- providing access to services for more than 2,000 families with children every year.
Over the past thirty plus years, AAF has held true to its vision of being a leader in “helping families help themselves.” Core services they provide include:

It’s teal with just a hint of the blue-green Atlantic when the sun shines on it just so…
It’s “Sea You at The Breakers,” the brand-new nail polish color designed by Essie and available exclusively at The Spa at The Breakers. Bonus? Not only will you have tropical toes, but when you choose this color, you take the bottle home with you.
The Spa is open daily from 8 a.m.-8 p.m.; call (877) 724-3188 to make a reservation or visit the website to see a menu of services.
Because our publisher, the Palm Beach Board of Realtors®, has a philanthropic connection with the Homeless Coalition of Palm Beach County, today’s post isn’t about fashion, food or the arts.
