CushWake Florida Directory 2016

Giving Back BACK TO SCHOOL August 2016 marked the official start of back to school season for kids in Florida and Cushman & Wakefield continued its strong history of giving back by putting these kids first when they needed it most. Returning back to school can be a challenge for children who do not have access to the supplies they need, so as a state, we did our best to lend a helping hand. Here is how our Cushman & Wakefield Florida offices did their part to support kids in need this back to school season.

Waterford Atrium

Our South Florida Asset Services team at the Waterford-Atrium property hosted their annual "Fill the Bus Supply Drive" on Wednesday, August 17. The event was a summer-long drive to collect school supplies for underprivileged Miami-Dade school students and fill an actual school bus with notebooks, pens, pencils, erasers, rules and folders, which were then distributed to more than 15 Miami-Dade County schools. The Waterford-Atrium team works with Communities in Schools Miami (CIS) on this annual event. CIS works to empower at- risk kids in the District's most challenged schools by bringing programs and resources that are proven to keep kids in school and motivated to graduate.

Orlando

Our Orlando office teamed up at the beginning of August to collect supplies benefiting the Boys and Girls Club of Central Florida. Since 1994, the Boys & Girls Club of Central Florida has helped inspire hope and opportunity for at-risk children in the local community. The Boys & Girls Club of Central Florida provides safe places for 14,000 children in the Orlando metro area to learn and grow.

There are 30 clubs total in the Orlando area, including Brevard, Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties.
