What an incredible night at the Boca Regional Chamber of Commerce 8th Annual Battle of the Bands, all in support of the Golden Bell Education Foundation and their efforts to raise funds for the Boca Raton Public School System’s educational programs. 🎶

Because of the support from caring community partners, like the Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton and St. Andrews Estates Retirement Life Community (Acts Retirement-Life Communities) our students began the school year with the tools they need to feel prepared, confident, and ready to learn

Their generous school-supply collection provided backpacks, notebooks, pencils, and much more, sending a powerful message to our students that their education matters! 📚✏️

We love watching our community, and our students, put their BEST FOOT FORWARD!
