The fundraiser benefits Kids in Distress and the Invited Employee Care Foundation.

Tower Club Fort Lauderdale is continuing its commitment to giving back and making an impact on the Greater Fort Lauderdale community during its 50th Anniversary Gala. Tower Club will host the 50th Anniversary Gala – Charity Classic, a significant celebration and philanthropic fundraising event to support Kids in Distress and the Invited Employee Care Foundation. The event is scheduled from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18 at the Tower Club – One Financial Plaza, 28th Floor, Fort Lauderdale.

Invited’s Charity Classic events have supported local charity partners since 2007, raising over $34 million. In 2023, the nationwide events raised $2 million for various charities across the United States and for the Employee Care Foundation (E.C.F.).

Registration for this year’s event is now available here. The Tower Club Team and its esteemed Board of Governors are proud to create this experience celebrating Tower Club’s five decades of serving as Fort Lauderdale’s business and social hub.

“Opening our Club to the community for this event positively impacts the lives of so many,” Marc Giarratano says, General Manager at Tower Club. “We are so proud to host our Charity Classic once again. This year’s event will be extra special as we combine Charity Classic with our Club’s 50th Anniversary Celebration. During our Charity Classic event, our Members and Employees work together with sponsors to show Tower Club’s commitment to enriching lives in the communities we serve.”

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
