Former MLB player Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod) recently hosted a holiday party for youth members at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade. A-Rod Corp. and A-Rod Corp. presented age-appropriate gifts during the holiday activities, which included a petting zoo provided by Tinez Farms, face painting, bounce houses, visits with Santa, photo opportunities, food and more. County Commissioner Raquel Regalado and City of Miami Commissioner Manolo Reyes were in attendance. Santa even appeared, landing via a helicopter on the Club’s baseball field. 

After an extraordinary baseball career, A-Rod now serves as a television baseball analyst for Fox Sports and ESPN and is a longtime board member for Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade and also for Boys & Girls Clubs of America. 

“We are incredibly humbled by the continuous support from A-Rod, A-Rod Corp. and its family of companies, for generously hosting this holiday event and donating gifts to our youth members,” Alex Rodriguez-Roig says, president of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade. “Our youth members will not only cherish their new toys but the memories of meeting A-Rod and enjoying the holiday party for years to come.” 

The event was sponsored by A-Rod Corp. and its family of companies, including Florida Physicians PSN, Metro Fund and Nelson Lopez. For more information or to donate to Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade, please visit www.bgcmia.org.
