Heartbeats for PATCHES, a nonprofit dedicated to raising funds and awareness for the medically fragile children at PATCHES Pediatric Nursing Center, presents “Let the Games Begin,” a fun-filled day of friendly games, shopping and giving back at Bet Shira Congregation in Pinecrest. Join us on May 1, 2025, for a high-end local vendor market in support of medically complex children receiving care at PATCHES.

While the game portion of the event is sold out, we actively invite and encourage women in the South Dade Community to join us to shop at our fabulous vendor market. The market will feature a diverse selection of vendors, offering a variety of products perfect for shopping and gifting.

Additionally, we welcome and appreciate all donations that can be made through the “Let the Games Begin” website. Donors contributing $180 or more will be recognized as Heart of Gold sponsors, and we would love to expand beyond our current supporters.

All proceeds from the event will directly benefit programs and critical needs at PATCHES, the non-profit nursing center dedicated to providing high-quality medical care to children in poverty with complex medical needs.
