burton + BURTON was honored to participate for the second year in the Super Baskets of Hope event. Basket of Hope’s mission is to deliver inspiration and joy to children diagnosed with cancer or other serious illnesses. The baskets contain age-appropriate games, toys, crafts, educational materials, and food products. Hope Totes are offered to the parents and contain gifts to nourish them physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Former and current NFL players and NFL cheerleaders delivered 500 generously-packed Super Baskets of Hope, Hope Totes, and balloons to kids and adults in the Super Bowl city, including Broward Health in Coral Springs and Ft. Lauderdale, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Ft. Lauderdale, and Nicklaus Children’s Hospital in Miami.
Maxine Burton, founder and president of burton + BURTON, said, “We were honored to be able to partner with the nonprofit organization, Basket of Hope, again this year and provide Super Bowl balloons. The pure joy brought to the children and their families is remarkable.”
