Dear Fans,

 

On behalf of the South Florida Firefighters Calendar, our staff and our volunteers we would like to thank each one of you for a phenomenal 30-year ride.  

We had a great time.  We have made donations, but more importantly, brought awareness to many worthwhile organizations in those 30 years.  

 

This year we finish with donations to Dr. Mary Ishii and Ms. Lori Baird with the UHealth Jackson Miami Burn Center.   The preeminent Burn Center in the world.

Once again, we are honored to support Nick Silverio with A Safehaven for Newborns.  

A charity created from love and continues to provide love.  And a final donation to Chief Yamille Diaz with Never Walk Alone, bringing support to those on the frontlines dealing with PTSD.  In the non-profit world, I was always taught you never donate to charity, you donate to people.  Those are some of the people and the charities they represent that we have chosen to donate to over the last few years. 

 

Many of you participated in our world-famous Secretary’s Day Luncheon at Jungle Island.

Or as we liked to call it: The Best Kept Secret Luncheon for Ladies in the World!

We are going to miss those great times.

 

30 years is a long time, and we accomplished a lot.  Met a lot of great people, had a lot of great times.  We raised money and awareness for many great charities along the way. 

And with absolutely no sadness but rather excitement about our next adventure we say goodbye and good luck.  

 

We wish all of you nothing but health and happiness.

 

On behalf of the South Florida Firefighters Calendar staff and volunteers we would like to thank each and every one of you for a phenomenal 30-year ride.  

 

Respectfully and with appreciation

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Lt. Luis Espinosa, Ret.
