We are so thrilled to announce that Chris Hawk will carry on the Hawk legacy and represent Jack &Jill Center in 2022! Thank you Chris and Galleria Fort Lauderdale for this opportunity! The hottest event of the year, Men of Style, is on Thursday, December 1st from 6:00 to 9:00 PM at Galleria Fort Lauderdale.
Chris Hawk grew up in Maryland as the oldest of three boys. He is an avid soccer player and swimmer, competing in both at the varsity level. He majored in Philosophy at Boston College with a concentration in pre-medical studies. During the summers he worked as an ocean lifeguard in New Jersey, competing as a swimmer and rower. He fell in love with south Florida where he studied medicine at the University of Miami. He completed residency training in New York and then fellowship training in Miami, and now works as an interventional cardiologist in Palm Beach county with a private group: the Medical Specialists of the Palm Beaches. Outside of the hospital he can be found in the sand playing beach volleyball, or on a yoga mat getting stretchy.

“I would like to extend sincere appreciation and gratitude on behalf of my family to Jack and Jill Children’s Center. They have been a beacon of hope within the community. They have so many activities and programs offered for families to learn and grow together. They are always around to lend an ear and shoulder to cry on if needed with a side of good advice. I would like to say thank you to Jack and Jill for taking such good care of my family.”
