When it comes to giving back to the community, here at Home-Tech, we like to mix it up a little. One of our favorite, yet glamorous events is the Heart Ball. We always put our hearts into it every year. Some of our other favorite community events include pounding nails and lugging lumber as we help Habitat For Humanity build a first home for a local single mom and her kids. We also love to help one of our favorite non-profits, the Animal Refuge Center, as hands on as we can, as we adore our furry friends.
Heart Health Matters
The Heart Ball supports the American Heart Association on a local level. With funds raised from this fabulous and festive evening at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa benefiting a variety of programs – from Go Red for Women, which is all about heart health for women, to educating children about healthy eating, exercising, and avoiding childhood obesity. But, that’s not all – the event is cosponsored by Lee Memorial Health System and Naples Community Hospital – making the event a true Southwest Florida effort – and Home-Tech is proud, as always, to be a sponsor.
Home-Tech Sponsors the Silent Auction
Previously, our very own rock star CFO, Sonya Sawyer, has been the co-chair of the festivities, along with her wonderful husband, Brian. This year, Home-Tech was thrilled to be the official sponsor of the Silent Auction, plus we donated one of our wine coolers for bidding which garnered a hefty amount for the cause. Over 500 guests attended, dancing into the wee hours to the band “None Other”, as NBC-2 Anchor Kellie Burns and Auctioneer Scott Robertson officiated.
Spotted in the crowd from Home-Tech was our own Sonya with Brian, CEO Steve Marino, Tammy Surratt, and Pam Marino, Service Operations Manager. Also enjoying the fun, Pason and Renee Gaddis, Dr. Larry and Mrs. Becky Antonucci, Nancy McGovern, Kathy Tolle, Laura Regan, and so many more.
Home-Tech has a heart – and we LOVE having a ball – thanks to the American Heart Association of Southwest Florida for letting us join the party of giving back – we can’t wait until next year!
