This month’s giving focus highlights the vital role the Blood Center plays in keeping our community healthy and cared for — every single day.

How Your Gift Makes an Impact
Your generosity will help fund a new, state-of-the-art scheduling system for the Lee Health Blood Center, improving how lifesaving blood is collected, managed, and delivered to Lee Health hospitals, Golisano Children’s Hospital, and patients throughout our region.
To participate, simply make checks payable to Lee Health Foundation and include “Blood Bank” on the memo line.
Every contribution helps keep our local blood supply strong, reliable, and ready when it’s needed most. Thank you for giving from the heart — it truly saves lives. 💕

What a night! Our Martini Mingle was bursting with holiday cheer, laughter, and enough sparkle to light up the poolside. From twinkling sweaters to fabulous martinis, you all brought the festive fun in the most fabulous way.
A huge round of applause for our Holiday Sweater/Shirt Contest winners (pictured left to right): Violet Miller, who dazzled us all and took home Prettiest — and yes, she’s Sandi Fiorello’s mom, proving that sparkle clearly runs in the family! Wendy Lokey took home the Ugliest sweater title — and wore it with total confidence! Bernadette Strong stole the show with Most Embellished brining the bells, bling, and bold holiday spirit!
Thank you to everyone who came out, dressed up, laughed, mingled, and made the evening so memorable. This is what Hearts of Miromar is all about — friendship, fun, and fabulous moments shared together. 💖✨
