The International Kids Fund (IKF) has given over 300 children in more than 35 countries access to life saving or life changing medical care |
| • |
This includes international children who cannot be treated within their native country, as well as children living in the United States who, without IKF assistance, would otherwise have no options |
| • |
The fund ensures these children receive the best care possible at Holtz Children’s Hospital of the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center, one of the nation’s premier teaching hospitals |
| • |
The IKF Latin American Art Auction (LAAA) was created to help pay for the critical surgeries, life-saving medical treatments and essential follow up care for children in the IKF program |
| • |
Known as the “The Collector’s Auction” throughout the art world, the caliber of art featured caters to art lovers interested in exploring new mediums and styles |
| • |
Enthusiasts come from all over the world to be part of the bidding that occurs during both the silent and live auctions |
| • |
Last year, 100 artists donated their work to raise over $200,000 for these critically ill children |
| • |
Now in its fourth year, LAAA is looking to build upon its reputation and further spread the word of the wonderful work the IKF does |
