The 2011 Ho Ho Holiday Gala
The annual LAAIA Holiday Gala was held on Saturday, December 10th at the Westin Colonnade Hotel in Coral Gables, FL. The evening was started off by a cocktail reception where attendees took pictures with Santa and caught up with everyone's holiday plans.
Santa topped his visit with a donation to the Jackson Memorial Hospital - Holtz Children's Hospital. Ruthann Mitchell, Child Life Coordinator was in attendance to receive the check and to thank us for supporting JMH. Since Jackson has fallen into hard times, our donation has really helped the Holtz Children's Hospital with a lot of their needs. Our fundraiser was once again sponsored by Fidelity National Insurance Company with a special shout out going to Ascendant Insurance, QQ Solutions and NQ Advertising for special donations going to JMH!
Congratulations to Ana Del Vecchio and Carlos Peñate who were selected as Insurance Woman and Man of the Year. This year, in recognition of two incredible past presidents, this award was renamed The Mary B Fernandez Insurance Woman of the Year Award and The Fernando Gimenez, Jr., CPCU Insurance Man of the Year Award. Gabriela Dominguez and David Gimenez were in attendance to help us honor Mary and Fernando!
