The Habilitation Center of Boca Raton (HabCenter) and Toshiba Business Solutions are teaming up to participate in the 2016 Boca Chamber Festival Days by creating a signature event, Flower Power Karaoke Social on August 17th. Guests will enjoy a groovy evening filled with live karaoke music from the 60’s and 70’s while sipping cocktails and enjoying light bites. The social will be hosted at Boca Resto Lounge located at 3360 N Federal Hwy. Boca Raton, FL. Proceeds from the Flower Power Karaoke Social will help local nonprofit organization HabCenter equip adults with special needs with the knowledge, skills and behavior needed to lead useful and productive lives, with dignity, respect and independence. “Participating in Boca Chamber Festival Days and partnering with a dynamic company like Toshiba plays a vital role in raising awareness for HabCenter’s mission. We want everyone to know who we are and what we do. We are really proud of us! We are looking forward to the exposure this event will bring and thankful to Toshiba for offering us this opportunity,” said Monique DeLaTorres, Director of Programs at HabCenter. The HabCenter of Boca Raton’s goal is to help clients in their programs reach their full potential. To do so, HabCenter has created job opportunities by offering their clients two tracks of workplace education and development: HABCO Manufacturing, and the Plant Nursery. Both facilities have professional staff members that provide high-level training and support for our client base. Clients who participant in HabCenter’s training programs benefit in a number of valuable ways. At HABCO Manufacturing, clients learn skills such as product assembly, technology repairs, cable and wire assembly, sewing, and kitting. Clients that train in the HabCenter’s State of the Art Nursery facility help produce over 1 million colorful, hardy plants each year for an ever expanding list of satisfied commercial customers. These include municipalities, golf courses and country clubs, landscape contractors, property management companies, and garden centers. The Flower Power Karaoke Social starts at 6:00 pm and the festivities will carry on until 9:00 pm. The ticket price for the event is $25 and includes two complimentary cocktails, appetizers and a chance to win door prize giveaways.
