On Tuesday, November 19th, Grandma’s Place held its 9th Annual Grandma’s Angels Holiday Luncheon at The Sailfish Club in Palm Beach.  The 215 guests sipped on wine and champagne as they bid on over 250 silent auction items.  

Co-Chairs Toni O’Brien and Joan O’Connell welcomed and thanked all of Committee members including Susy Burrowes, Angelica Ciminella, Amy Considine, Margaret Donnelley, Manda Galin, Hilda Gonzalez, Patti Hadden, Barbara Hollender, Ryan Hollihan, Jourdan Isasi, Eleanor Jones, Mary Lewis Moews, Elizabeth Nunez, Brendita Nunez, Madison O’Connell, Amy Quattlebaum, Michele Roth, Dina Rubio, Jodie Schmitz, Holly Tabernilla, and Jaime Taylor.

Local CBS12 News Anchor Liz Quirantes once again graciously served as the celebrity emcee. Dr. Heidi Schaeffer, the Honorary Chair, spoke passionately about the importance of saving our children. Olivia Knowles, the featured speaker and founder of Olivia’s Hot Cocoa Stand, emphasized that together we can all make a difference. Then Neil Saffer auctioned off 7 fabulous live auction items.

The proceeds benefit Grandma’s Place, which provides shelter and loving care to children who have suffered abuse or neglect and have been removed from their homes, and also provides respite care for young children with disabilities while offering support to their parents/caregivers to maximize each child’s safety and success.
