Please read about Kid Care below. David Lawrence is a friend of mine and Ginger and I constantly promote children's reading programs as well as have our annual book drive. 
 
Jeannett:
Here’s the good news: Already, more than half of the 10 communities participating in Reading Pals have launched with hundreds of trained volunteers heading for classrooms to read with children. Meanwhile, many other volunteers are signing up to help with a statewide health care outreach initiative. (For one example, 22 volunteers were trained this week in Miami to go into communities and enroll children in KidCare). Moreover, via our partnership with TurboVote, hundreds of Floridians are registering to vote.
Working together, we have the power within us to build something that hasn’t been built before – that is, a movement for all children. Your support fuels this work and inspires me. (To make a contribution of any size – fully tax-deductible – just click here.)
Thank you.

840 Coral Way : A One of a Kind Property

840 Coral Way has to be one of the most unique homes in all of Coral Gables. Built in 1926 and designed by noted architects John and Coulton Skinner for R.D. Maxwell. This house is a testament of the artistry and craftsmanship of the designers who worked in Coral Gables during its boom. The structure is an excellent example of the larger homes that were constructed along this prominent street. Designed in the "Italianate" style the house has an elaborate central portal, which comes to a pediment at the roof line to focus the entrance. The Skinner brothers also used round oculus windows at the mezzanine floor level to articulate the walls that allow for such high ceilings. The ground floor was originally composed of a formal living room, library and dinning room and designed around an open loggia. Above on the second floor there are five bedrooms for the family that were connected two by two with a central bathroom. Covered porches were also integrated into the design of
