May 2019 Charity of the Month Women & Wishes Women & Wishes is a 501c(3) non-profit organization consisting of an all-volunteer board.

We assist these women and their children during temporary challenges. We refer to these temporary challenges as a “bump in the road” on life’s journey. These women do not qualify for federal or state assistance; providing them assistance to move past the “bump in the road” may be the difference between becoming another statistic or getting back on track to continue a healthy and productive life. This makes our organization unique by providing support to US citizens living in Broward and Palm Beach counties with no duplication of service by other organizations.

The women we help are supporting themselves and their children when they experience a temporary challenge due to a death, divorce, job loss, or medical issue. Women & Wishes facilitate assistance by granting this woman a one-time wish to move through and beyond this challenging time.

These women are as varied as their careers and situations. They are executives, teachers, nurses, sales representatives, state workers, and real estate professionals to name a few. Their needs are varied as well. Some support we have provided includes assistance in getting help with auto repairs and tires, computers repaired, late rent payments, mortgage payments, legal assistance as well as getting an FPL bill paid or a water heater replaced. No women ever receive cash, we make the payment directly to the need.

Contrasting Elements: OPA LOCKA Miami's New Concours Club to Offer Membership at $350K

Concours Club Artists Rendition

Miami, a city famous for its mind-numbing traffic and slow-cruise culture, is lately looking like the best city for cars in America. Soon after Formula One won its bid to hold a race there next year and Grand Basel announced it’ll have an automotive event there in February, two developers have solidified plans to build a $220 million racetrack and private members club just 11 miles from Miami’s artsy Wynwood district. Set to open at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport in May 2019, The Concours Club will offer more than 2 miles of racetrack designed by Alan Wilson, plus an infinity pool and jacuzzi, full spa and a hammam, wine and cigar storage, restaurant and bar, and full concierge services.

“The amenities are what set us apart,” said co-founder Neil Gehani. “We want to be sure we bring in the right people, and then we want to keep everyone here once they get here.”

Gehani and co-owner Jay Pollak will offer 40 founding memberships costing $350,000, with no annual dues.

Founding members will then invite friends and colleagues to buy “legacy memberships” capped at 150 people.

Those will cost $125,000 plus annual dues. Corporate memberships may be offered shortly after the initial opening.

If that all sounds like a steep ante, it is. But it’s consistent with the pricing of other private tracks around the world such as the Thermal Club outside Palm Springs, Calif., and the Monticello Motor Club, set in the lush Hudson Valley of upstate New York. And, to put it in perspective, it’s less than the cost of even one of the cars—a Pagani Zonda costs $1.4 million, for instance, and a Koenigsegg Agera costs $2.1 million—owned by the prospective members, who will be a mix of wealthy international collectors and local, well-connected driving enthusiasts.

The latest Ferrari one-off project, the SP3JC, has been officially consigned to its owner. Designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the SP3JC was commissioned by a Ferrari client and collector whose brief set out to create a pure, uncompromising roadster using the chassis and running gear of the F12tdf.

The sole one-off car to be commissioned on this limited-series special, the SP3JC is the maximum expression of open-air motoring, harking back to Ferrari’s epic V12-engined spiders of the 1950s and ‘60s. The striking one-off makes an important and individual styling statement and represents the outcome of over two years of intense work, with close involvement from the client throughout the process.

The SP3JC features a very muscular stance with dynamic sculpturing on the flanks designed to emphasise the frontengine layout, a distinctive air intake outline at the front, and a dramatic rear fascia with horizontal slashes contributing to a wider stance.

The client’s passion for Pop Art is reflected in the strong graphics, and the unique combination of the Azzurro Met and Giallo Modena livery over the main Bianco Italia colour scheme underlines the car’s sensual volumes.

The sporting theme is reinforced by specific detailing such as split glass inserts on the bonnet to show off the 780cv V12 engine, a flying bridge between the fairings of the integral carbon-fibre roll hoops and a brushed aluminium external fuel filler cap.

The seats are trimmed in blue leather with a white insert. The blue leather extends to the lower dashboard and the colour is picked up in the contrasting stitching to the rest of the interior trim.
