Samantha’s Purpose (together with Blossom Therapy Center) is also responsible for making sure that National Cerebral Palsy is now acknowledged and celebrated in Miami-Dade County, Florida on March 25th.  In 2014 and 2015, we were responsible for having the Freedom Tower, Miami Tower (f/k/a Centrust Building) and Hotel Intercontinental illuminated “green” in honor of Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day.  We are also the proud recipients of a Proclamation from the City of Miami and Miami-Dade County Commission acknowledging that March 25th is National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day, and a Proclamation acknowledging March 1st as “Samantha’s Purpose Day”. 

 

Another great accomplishment we achieved together with Blossom Therapy Center is on Friday, March 27, 2015, House Resolution 9057 was adopted confirming that March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month in the State of Florida. This House Resolution was sponsored by State Representative Eric Fresen (District 114 – Republican).  The request was made by Miami-Dade County Commissioner Juan C. Zapata (District 11).
