Over the last two years the Broward Health 3rd Annual ‘We Are Stoneman Douglas’ Food and Wine Festival has raised substantial money to help fund non-profit mental health and trauma organizations in Broward county, why do you think the event has had such success and impact? And we should all try to be that person of guidance,” Chef Rush explained. No matter who it may be - no matter if it’s your family or it’s a stranger, someone is looking for you as guidance. “People have to understand that you are an example to somebody. Instead, we should show support to people that need it.
Rush said that the Parkland shooting in 2018 was “devastating” - but it taught him that mental health issues should not be taken lightly. It’s about being caring and being impactful.” Everything that Parkland Cares talks about is what I stand for. Parkland Cares mission is to provide immediate and long-term funding and awareness for mental health counseling for the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting survivors, their families and the community-at-large.Ĭhef Rush tells us how Parkland Cares’ mission aligns with his, “It’s the same energy, the same mindset, the same heart. The Broward Health 3rd Annual ‘We Are Stoneman Douglas’ Food and Wine Festival is benefiting Parkland Cares this year. I’m just looking forward to the energy and the support and all the love that everyone is giving to each other,” Rush explained. This is so personal and near and dear to my heart. If we help one kid, one person, one family member, one person in need of help, it’s pretty infectious. “It’s such a wonderful opportunity and a blessing to be able to give back, especially to the kids, because that’s a huge part of me.
Rush said that from his experience as a father, he knows how important it is to promote mental health support in the community - especially for the youth. Chef Rush will hold an Ice Sculpting Demonstration at the March 15th event.Īt the Broward Health 3rd Annual ‘We Are Stoneman Douglas’ Food and Wine Festival, there will be members of the community coming together to support the students, teachers and community who have been exposed to and have experienced trauma.
