211 Palm Beach And Treasure Coast
‘Raised The Roof’ At Annual Spring Celebration
Nearly 200 supporters gathered for 211 Palm Beach
and Treasure Coast’s Annual Spring Celebration “Raise
the Roof” on March 31 at The Colony Palm Beach. The
chairs of 211’s largest fundraising event of the year were
Guy Clark and Harrison Morgan.
This sold-out event was a festive evening filled with
positive party energy and purpose. Guests enjoyed
cocktails and light bites poolside, followed by a decadent
dinner, lively music, and dancing throughout the night in
The Coral Ballroom. Ryan Ruark, Dave Aronberg, Mark Foley Brittany Bilous and Tracy Turco Peter Hallock and Joan Lemongello
During dinner, guests heard heartfelt remarks from event
chairs and a brief but powerful video that showcased the
lifesaving and life-changing work of 211. John Deese, a
Board member who began his involvement with 211 as a
volunteer with the nonprofit when he was 18 years old, also
shared why he is so passionate about 211 and how essential
its services are for those in our community in need.
Proceeds from the annual spring celebration will directly
benefit 211 Palm Beach and Treasure Coast’s lifesaving
mission; this year was especially uplifting, as the organization
