Business Executives Invited to Register for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Palm Beach County’s Executive Build Event

The occasion will help a local family build a home.

Registration is available for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Palm Beach County’s (HFHGPBC) Executive Build (formerly CEO Build). The Executive Build is an annual event focused on fundraising and home-building. It brings together executives and leaders to collaborate with Habitat for Humanity and assist local families in achieving affordable homeownership. This year’s event is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 27, in Lake Worth Beach.

This year’s event is co-chaired by Robyn Raphael-Dynan, the President of RCC Associates, the leading general contractor firm in South Florida. Adam Handfinger, the co-managing Partner of Peckar and Abramson’s Miami office, chair of the Client Service Committee and member of Peckar and Abramson’s Executive Committee, is also co-chairing the event. He holds a certification from the Florida Bar as a Construction Law Specialist. Participants are encouraged to showcase their leadership by assisting in constructing affordable homes alongside Habitat families.

Executive Build has a profound and enduring effect on the community while also providing executives with a one-of-a-kind chance to connect with others, participate in practical volunteering, and boost their businesses’ brand visibility.

“Executive Build offers a unique platform for business executives and community leaders to take an active role in addressing the affordable housing crisis in our community,” Jennifer Thomason says, CEO and president of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Palm Beach County. “By working alongside Habitat families, participants can make a tangible impact and help create lasting change together. Join us on Friday, September 27 to be a part of this vital effort.”

As an Executive Builder, individuals are requested to commit to a minimum contribution of $3,500 (which can be fundraised and/or donated), register for a half-day shift and assist in building affordable homes while developing new friendships and business connections. No prior construction experience is required to take part. Corporate Sponsorships start at $5,000.

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.
