United Way of Broward County Receives $250,000 From JM Family Enterprises, Inc

To help the United Way of Broward County continue providing support and services for residents in the community, the JM Family Enterprises, Inc. recently donated $250,000 to the nonprofit organization. The two organizations have partnered together for over 25 years, with the latest donation helping United Way’s MISSION UNITED veterans initiative and its 2021-2022 Chairman’s Circle membership.

“There are no words to express our gratitude to everyone at JM Family including President and CEO, Brent Burns and Chairman, Colin Brown for re-committing to be a Chairman’s Circle Partner,” says Kathleen Cannon, presidents and CEO of United Way of Broward County. “Our programs, such as MISSION UNITED, are successful because we have your support. Thank you for creating long-lasting positive impact in Broward County.”

Along with the financial contributions, the JM Family also organizes an annual workplace campaign that helps more than 600 associates receive critical programming from the United Way of Broward County. The programs support the organization’s ability to provide health, education, and financial assistance for vulnerable residents in Broward.

 “JM Family is honored to be a long-time supporter of United Way of Broward County and MISSION UNITED. We are very appreciative of the work these organizations do to address challenges facing our most vulnerable populations, including our veterans who have sacrificed so much to protect our freedoms,” Burns says.

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.
