The weekend-long event celebrates the legacy of Bal Harbour Shops founder Stanley Whitman who was a longstanding supporter of Holtz Children’s Hospital. With Mr. Whitman’s favorite dessert in mind, Bal Harbour Shops created the event to honor his dedication to philanthropy. All proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Holtz Children’s Hospital, supporting its mission to enhance and expand its pediatric specialty programs.

“Following the success of last year’s ‘Ice Cream We Love’ in which we helped raise more than $76,000, we are proud to once again partner with Holtz Children’s Hospital to offer Bal Harbour Shops’ guests a sweet treat,” said Matthew Whitman Lazenby, president and chief executive officer of Whitman Family Development. “As this event grows year to year, we will continue to introduce experiences that will create unforgettable memories for our visitors while having a positive impact on the community.”
