Frank and Rita Barbieri serve as the honorary chairs for the 2024 Bash. The Barbieris have generously supported BFF, and other vital programs dedicated to making a difference in children’s lives, for many years. Frank and Rita are tremendous assets to the community, and their involvement with the Palm Beach County School District has made a lasting impact for so many deserving students.

  

The evening will also honor Dr. Van P. Williams, Provost and Dean of Students at Palm Beach State College’s Boca Raton campus, with the 2024 Champion of Children Award, in recognition of his long-standing commitment to championing foster care and at-risk youth, and to providing important support to the students in BFF’s programs.

Lynn, E.M. Lynn Foundation, Tara and Tony Ruberg, and Joan E. Schwartz and Bruce Rubinger.

  

“Our annual Bash is a gathering of our biggest supporters, donors, and volunteers, but it really is a celebration of our students,” said Donna Biase, Co-Founder of Best Foot Forward. “They are the stars of everything we do and the reason why we work so hard to spread our mission.” During the Bash, guests will learn about Best Foot Forward’s impactful programs while enjoying a special evening of silent and live auctions, cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, and dancing.
