DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. (PRWEB)
September 25, 2019
BrandStar, the Deerfield Beach based TV producers of popular television properties that air on Lifetime, Fox Business and Bloomberg International, has been offering hope and a helping hand on the home front to members of our military and their loved ones through its award winning show, Military Makeover with Montel Williams. In conjunction with BrandStar CARES, the philanthropic arm of the company, they are proud to announce the Inaugural Montel Williams Military Makeover Celebrity Golf Classic & Gala. Hosted by Military Veteran and TV personality Montel Williams, other guests will include a variety of top entertainment, sports and media celebrities. This event will benefit Military Makeover families and our non-profit partners.
“BrandStar CARES is honored to host this inaugural event with Montel Williams to support our Military Makeover families and deserving local charities who are focused on mental health awareness and critical solutions.” – Mark Alfieri, Founder and CEO, BrandStar
“It’s an honor to team up with BrandStar to raise money for our military makeover families and for deserving charities. I’ve often said that when I “left” the military I never really took my uniform off and Military Makeover has provided me a powerful platform to continue my advocacy on behalf of military and veteran families and do what I can to make life better for some very deserving families.”- Montel Williams, Host and Co-Executive Producer
The two local beneficiaries of this event are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, ThankYouFirstResponder.org (TYFRO.org) and Parkland Cares. TYRFO.org raises awareness and support for our nation’s first responders through mental health first aid training. Parkland Cares was launched by the Chairman and President of Debt.com who are local Parkland businessmen. Howard Dvorkin CPA and Don Silvestri formed the organization the day after the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas (MSD) High School. Parkland Cares provides immediate and long-term funding and awareness for mental health counseling for the shooting survivors, their families and the community. BrandStar CARES is proud to support these local non-profits that seek to positively impact the South Florida community.
BrandStar also recently announced Debra Hixon as the recipient of a complete home makeover right here in South Florida on the national TV show Military Makeover. Debra is the wife of the late Chris Hixon, Athletic Director and Wrestling Coach at MSD High School, and 27 year U.S. Navy Veteran. The Hixon makeover will debut on February 14, 2020.
