The “Doctors Hospital on Broadway Gala – Life is a Cabaret” fulfilled its goal of becoming one of Miami’s most epic events this year and THE COLLECTION was proud to be a sponsor. The curtain rose on May 20, 2017, at 7 p.m. and the Ocean Bank Convocation Center at Florida International University was complete with dinner, dancing, entertainment and a live and silent auction. The night truly was a cabaret as it was full of magnificent New York City inspired surprises.
As guests arrived, they were greeted by five of THE COLLECTION’s finest Porsche’s. Like last year, we provided a multitude of Porsche displays outside the event which included the new Boxter, Carrera 4S Cabriolet, Cayenne GTS, Macan GTS, 911 Carrera S CPE and the one and only Cayman S. Inside the FIU Arena, the all-new Porsche Panamera was on display and in full theme as it was glistening in its bright red paint in honor of the “Big Apple”.
Emceed by popular radio and TV sportscaster Joe Rose, the event attracted approximately 600 area business, community and civic leaders, whose support will help raise funds for Doctors Hospital’s Center for Excellence in Nursing. Supported solely by philanthropy, the Center benefits the hospital’s compassionate, dedicated nurses by providing them access to advanced training courses, scholarships, new technologies allowing them to spend more time with patients, and hospital-specific needs designated by donors.
What was the highlight of the night, you might ask? Well aside from a special performance by Howard McGillin, best known for starring in the title role of “The Phantom of the Opera” more than any other actor in Broadway history, for me it was watching two fortunate winners take home weekend loan certificates for the Porsche 718 Boxster and the Porsche Macan.
I am thrilled THE COLLECTION was able to support our community and attend this gala. I always look forward to participating in next year’s gala with an open heart.
