Fort Myers INFINITI
Helping our community with the Pace Foundation
Every year for four years
It has been our honor to support the Pace Center for Girls, Collier County, by donating a brand New INFINITI to be raffled off the night of their Love That Dress! Event.
Love That Dress! Event is a feel-good night where you can donate your new or gently loved dresses, shoes, handbags, and accessories to benefit PACE Center for Girls of Collier County. You'll be giving these deserving young ladies the opportunity to experience a wonderful night of glitz and glam.
We appreciate the amazing things the Pace Foundation does to change the lives of young underprivileged girls in Lee County. We have all been so fortunate in our lives and take for granted what most of these ladies must struggle for every day.
About PACE
Pace Center for Girls is a nationally recognized, research-based non-residential program that features a balanced emphasis on academics and social services for middle and high-school aged girls and young women. Pace provides academic education through individualized progress monitoring plans and daily instruction taught by certified teachers. The holistic, strength-based, and asset building Pace program model addresses the needs of girls and has garnered recognition nationally as one of the most effective programs in the country for keeping girls from entering the juvenile justice system.
In 2007, Judge James Seals brought an initiative before community leaders to open a center that could focus on the gender-specific needs of at-risk girls in the Lee County area. After a group visit to the Collier Pace Center for Girls, the vision and hope for a center in Lee County became a reality. With the success of the program locally, community leaders and supporters rallied together to purchase and improve on a site tailored to meet the needs of the school and its students. On June 9th, 2014 the new center was dedicated as the L. Gail Markham Pace Center for Girls, Lee County.
