CC HOMES
ACKNOWLEDGING THE IMPORTANCE OF RESEARCH, CC HOMES, ONE OF SOUTH FLORIDA’S LARGEST HOME BUILDERS LED BY JIM CARR AND ARMANDO CODINA, MADE A $1 MILLION GIFT TO BAPTIST HEALTH.
The Sky is the Limit:
Supporting Excellence and Innovation Healthcare organizations worldwide rely on philanthropic support for investigatorinitiated research. This critical funding helps drive innovation and discoveries, develop prevention strategies and treatments, and advance methodologies in patient care. Acknowledging the importance of research, CC Homes, one of South Florida’s largest home builders led by Jim Carr and Armando Codina, made a $1 million gift to Baptist Health to be divided among Miami Cancer Institute, Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, Miami Neuroscience Institute and Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute. The gift was made in honor of Baptist Health’s
soon-to-be-retired CEO Brian E. Keeley, and his vision in establishing Baptist Health as a leader in healthcare and research. As Baptist Health’s current board chair, Jim felt a special connection to this gift. “I’ve been involved with Baptist Health for over 30 years and have had the great pleasure of watching it grow into a nationally recognized healthcare system,” he stated. “With its Institutes and Programs, it is addressing and influencing how we treat serious diseases. We have also had the great fortune to meet many of Baptist Health’s physicians and researchers, and understand that philanthropy is the fuel that ignites these ideas and novel research programs. This is why we are so proud to make this gift, and we invite others to join us and help match our investment.”
