The focus of the magazine is to be a resource to the Naples community on living and enjoying a healthy lifestyle. This includes  the arts, learning about the people who live and contribute to Naples, out of doors activities, keeping physically fit, health care tips and helping  others through philanthropic endeavors," stated Sandra Lee Buxton, Owner/Editor of Life in Naples Magazine.

We can't wait to see all the well-being activities they have planned for next year as part of their WIGs (Wildly Important Goals).

Immokalee Foundation beIMG_7070came a Blue Zones Project Approved Worksite on May 22! The non-profit organization works to empower children and young adults to change the course of their lives. Our students come from situations where English may not be their first language, where just getting through high school is considered a high achievement, and where a college degree and career are mere dreams. With the support of mentors, donors and volunteers, The Immokalee Foundation provides students the resources and the confidence to follow pathways to success.
