Crockett Foundation Hosts Sips and Cigars Fundraising Event

The organization aims to build character, develop leaders, and improve South Florida communities.

South Florida’s prominent philanthropists and community leaders gathered to mark the fifth annual Sips & Cigars event, a significant initiative by the Crockett Foundation at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood. The event, a tribute to the dedication and commitment of brothers Henri and Zack Crockett, brought together a diverse guest list including friends, family, community organizations, civic leaders, and corporate partners. These individuals have all contributed to the Crockett Foundation’s mission of empowering communities, one child at a time. The event, featuring a carefully curated selection of cigars and spirits, drew a crowd of nearly 300 guests and raised over $100,000. This substantial amount will be used to support hundreds of young individuals and families in historically overlooked communities, making a tangible difference in their lives.

“Every year, the goal of this event is to provide a unique experience to our guests while sharing the impact of our mission, and every year, I am taken aback by the generosity and love displayed by our Board members, our Sponsors, and event Guests,” Henri says, CEO and president of the Crockett Foundation.

The sponsors for the 2024 Crockett Foundation Sips & Cigars event included Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Audi, AMG Healthcare, Orthopedix MD, Allianz, The Battle Charitable Foundation, Brown & Brown Insurance, Greenberg Traurig, LLP., Northwestern Mutual, South Florida Business & Wealth, Oliva Cigars, Calvin Hughes, Chattanooga Whiskey, NOMAD WhiskeyGlazer’srn Glazer’s, Truman Vodka, CopallN’Namdiand N’Namdi Contemporary.
