The New Syd & Marianne Levy Service Center
This past January, we moved into our new administrative offices at the corner of E. Colonial Drive and N. Magnolia Ave., thanks to the tremendous generosity and support of our friends, Syd & Marianne Levy. Their amazing contribution enabled us to purchase our own building which now houses over 25 corporate staff members and now showcases a brand presence in downtown Orlando that will surely bring attention to our mission and overall movement.
THANK YOU to the Levy family, our long-time friends and supporters, for all that they do for our organization and the children we serve each year! Stay tuned for more updates on our new Service Center!
