United to serve our region’s youth

3 Feb, Fort Walton Beach:  United for a Good Cause hosted a “Thank You” party as a way to acknowledge the contribution of the members and supporters during 2016.   A great performance by local favorite, Amid Montelongo and Karaoke singing by many attendees was part of the fun.

In addition, delicious food from El Rincón Boricua, Sabór a México, and a delicious cake from La Tienda Mexicana Destin was enjoyed by all.  Guests brought other tasty dishes and desserts as everyone enjoyed a family-friendly fiesta.

United for a Good Cause continues to make an impact in the community and had a hugely successful 2016 in accomplishing their mission to “promote the Spirit of Service, Giving, and Unity among the region’s youth for the benefit of the Emerald Coast community.
