Voices for Children of Broward County is thrilled to announce the creation of The Voices for Children of Broward County Endowment Fund, made possible by a $100,000 gift from the Paul Palank Memorial Foundation.   According to Voices for Children’s Board Chair, Amy Goldin, “The donation allows us to establish this Fund to ensure Voices will be able to continue to serve the needs of abused, neglected and neglected children served by the Guardian Ad Litem program into the future. We are so grateful for this tremendous gift.”

The Paul Palank Memorial Foundation called upon others in the community to contribute to the Endowment Fund. “The Palank Foundation is impressed with the role that Voices has stepped in to fill, becoming the only ongoing funding source for the very important Guardian Ad Litem program for Broward’s dependent children,” said Angelica Palank, Founding Director of the Palank Foundation. “The Endowment Fund will become one of many funding sources for the organization, which will continue to rely on individual and corporate gifts.  We are hoping that more foundations, businesses and individuals will contribute to this perpetual funding source to help with this problem which, while it may never go away, this organization helps to improve.  This type of gift truly ‘keeps giving’ to our community’s children and thereby our shared future.”

The endowment fund will be managed through The Miami Foundation. For more information on how to donate to the Endowment Fund, please call 954-915-6949 or visit our website, www.voicesbroward.org
