Broward College Campus Beautification Day

Sponsored By

September 7 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Organized by Broward College Cares and Broward College Alumni & Friends, Campus Beautification Day culminates Broward College Foundation’s inaugural Philanthropy Week. Campus Beautification Day tasks will include painting wooden birdhouses, pots and decorative rocks, installing native plants and milkweed in the butterfly garden, and laying mulch. Groups and duties will be assigned at check-in. Volunteers of all ages and skill levels are welcome and are asked to wear attire appropriate for yard work. Volunteers will receive a Broward College Cares t-shirt, swag bag, and be entered in a raffle for prizes.

Participation is free and hours can count toward community service goals, so volunteers are asked to bring tracking forms to be signed. To register, visit https://giving.broward.edu/beautification-day.

Donations to the Seahawk Marketplace, Broward College’s on-campus pantry that offers free food and personal hygiene items to students, will also be accepted on Campus Beautification Day. The pantry’s wish list of items is available here: https://www.broward.edu/students/seahawk-outreach/_docs/donation-hygiene.pdf.

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.
