ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — To spread awareness and support children on the autism spectrum, Florida Elk Charities presented the annual Unmasking Autism Gala.
Saturday night, ABC Action news anchor Wendy Ryan MC’ed the event, a fundraiser for the non-profit that helps treat children with autism.
There was a silent auction to benefit the charity with an incredible mission serving families right here in the Bay Area.
They provide in-home physical and occupational therapy to more than 600 children each week at no cost to the families.
They expected approximately 400 people to attend, with a goal of raising between $300,000 and $400,000.
“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”
South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
