A look back at the 2023 Bean Automotive Group Live Like Bella Ball, as the foundation prepares for their upcoming 2024 Ball

The 2023 Bean Automotive Group Bella’s Ball focused on the Live Like Bella® Childhood Cancer Foundation’s ten years of impact and innovation, commemorating this important milestone throughout the ball.
Since 2013, Live Like Bella® has led the fight to find a cure for childhood cancer, funding over 36 research trials and partnering with various institutions. Founders Raymond and Shannah Rodriguez-Torres know firsthand the pain and heartbreak of dealing with childhood cancer, losing their daughter, Bella, to cancer at age 10. They started the Live Like Bella® Childhood Cancer Foundation in honor of their daughter, to continue her unbreakable love for life. To “Live Like Bella” means to serve and help others, and the foundation has done just that, helping thousands of families financially across the country.

The Bean Automotive Group Bella’s Ball plays an important role in raising money for the foundation, so they can continue helping families dealing with cancer and fund research projects to help find a cure for childhood cancer. For the 2023 ball, supporters were able to raise over $100,000 for the foundation, surpassing their fundraising goal. Cancer is the number one cause of death by disease for children in America, and with help from foundations like Live Like Bella®, there is hope for a brighter future with more children beating this disease.

Bean Automotive Group has been the title sponsor for Bella’s Ball for the past 6 years, supporting the foundation’s mission to find a cure for childhood cancer, and help families currently dealing with the disease. In addition to serving their customers and associates, Bean Automotive Group focuses on the local community, supporting multiple charities and organizations throughout Miami. The Bean team is always ready to help the local community, whether it’s through a generous contribution or hands-on volunteer work, Bean Automotive Group gives it their all for the community.
