Delray Beach, FL — Homeowners in nine of Delray Beach’s beautiful beachfront North End neighborhood opened their doors to visitors during the 20th Annual Delray Beach Home Tour benefiting Achievement Centers for Children & Families (ACCF) on Wednesday, March 15th. The Delray Beach Home Tour was a unique opportunity for 750 people to see these exquisite interiors.
“Each year we select a different Delray Beach neighborhood where homeowners showcase exquisite interior designs and architectural styles,” said Noreen Payne. “The Home Tour featured a variety of homes that ranged from elegant intracoastal homes, oceanside estates and seaside cottages, providing home decorating enthusiasts with an inside look into the world of distinctive Delray coastal living.”
During the tour, which attracts visitors from throughout South Florida, guests enjoyed a leisurely day exploring unique residences, a catered luncheon and trolley service between homes.
All Home Tour ticket sales and sponsorships benefited ACCF, which supports children and families throughout Delray Beach and the surrounding neighborhoods. At ACCF children are involved in Early Learning (Toddler and Preschool), Out-of-School (After School and Summer Camp), and Teen Mentoring programs that prepare them for academic and social success and empower them to discover their talents. ACCF families are served through programs like Family Strengthening and Economic Stabilization, which benefit the community by helping families in crisis; enabling them to serve as the foundation of their child’s growth.
The Home Tour was first conceived by long-time ACCF board members and supporters Anne Bright and Barbara Murphy. Planning for the home tour, which draws more than 600 visitors annually, involved more than 100 dedicated volunteers.
“We are grateful for the support of all our hardworking volunteers, the homeowners who graciously allowed visitors into their homes, and, of course, our dedicated sponsors,” said ACCF Chief Development Officer Jessica Hall. “Continued support from our community has allowed us to continue to provide quality programming and provide new opportunities to the children and families we serve. We look forward to supporting under-resourced families through this year’s Home Tour, as the community’s needs continue to increase.”
