The breakfast raised more than $55,000 for 2-1-1 Broward. Just as 2-1-1 Broward facilitates the connection of people to health and human services, its partners and supporters offer the organization the opportunities to make these connections.
Broward College and 2-1-1 Broward formed a new and unique partnership in which specially trained staff at the 2-1-1 Broward call center answer inquiries from Broward College prospective students, students, and community partners. The call center helps answer questions, resolve concerns, route requests to the appropriate departments, and connects callers with 2-1-1 Broward's many services, if needed. Broward College also has supported the organization by acting as a corporate partner and a Non-Profit Awards partner for three years.
