It has a been a wonderful week so far in Miami! Even though the weather is cooler, the events certainly seem to be getting hotter! On Thursday, September 16th, Business Buddies Miami presented a poolside event called Networking for Friendship at the W South Beach. Business Buddies is designed to raise awareness and funds for Best Buddies, a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities through friendships and jobs. Guests who attended the sizzling event enjoyed live entertainment featuring DJ Irie of the Miami HEAT, a silent auction and cocktails provided by Grey Goose Vodka. This was a great networking opportunity and all of the proceeds from the night benefited Best Buddies and their programs.
