Top Boca Realtor Ari Albinder Makes Grocery Donation to Boca Raton Children’s Museum

Ari and Erin in Grocer 01 - 9-5-14The Singing Pines Grocery Store is one of the most popular sections of the Boca Raton Children’s Museum.  Children of all ages gravitate to the store as they love to pretend to grocery shop.  The problem was that their pretend groceries had sustained the wear and tear from years of use and the Museum made a plea for help to replace their plastic groceries.

“We approached a major supermarket chain in Boca and Delray, and their corporate headquarters declined to help.  Turns out that Ari Albinder was our angel.  When he heard that we needed help, Ari immediately stepped up and wrote us a check,” said Erin Simpson-Krar, Director of Arts and Education at the Boca Raton Children’s Museum. “Now our groceries are all new, the store looks amazing and the children are loving it.”

Ari Albinder is Broker and Owner of Mizner Grande Realty, one of Boca Raton’s top real estate firms.  Besides making key waterfront deals, Albinder believes strongly in giving back to the community.  His donation to the museum allowed them to bring in a whole store of new plastic groceries including fruit, steaks, seafood, milk, bread and canned foods.

“I loved visiting the Boca Raton Children’s Museum and seeing the children enjoy the new groceries.  With kids of my own, I realize that value that this museum serves to the area and I’m thrilled that I can play a role in making a child’s day a little bit better,” said Ari Albinder.

The Boca Raton Children’s Museum I located at 498 Crawford Boulevard near Boca Raton City Hall and is open Mondays through Saturdays from 10am to 5pm.  For more information call 561-368-6875 or visit www.cmboca.org.
