Home Run for Our Future Heroes!
The Sheriff’s Foundation of Broward County hit it out of the park this weekend with a special Sunday Funday at the Stadium!
Our Explorer & Cadets Program enjoyed an unforgettable day filled with fun, teamwork, and inspiration—building memories that will last a lifetime.

The enthusiasm, excitement, and pure joy shining from the young adults in the Explorers & Cadets Program was simply contagious.
Their energy was a powerful reminder of the impact this program has on their lives.
As Mr. John Diprato shared, the experience was nothing short of inspiring.
“What made this so heartwarming was seeing them cheering, jumping, and hoping to catch a foul ball. It was a great time — the kids were fantastic!”

Building future heroes starts with believing in them today!

The dedication these young individuals show toward the Explorers & Cadets Program is truly inspiring. They represent the future—young men and women aspiring to become police officers and first responders, committed to serving and protecting our community.
Explorers and Cadets commit themselves fully to this demanding program, taking on the same intensive training as the adults currently serving in these roles. Their passion and discipline demonstrate their potential to become invaluable members of our community in the years ahead.
With sincere gratitude to everyone who made this experience possible, and for the devoted support you continue to provide without hesitation.
A special thank-you to Mr. John Diprato and his wife, Lizbeth Diprato, for their genuine belief in our youth and for being a guiding force, inspiring them toward a bright and meaningful future.

We would also like to recognize and thank:
- Deputy Neil Mondesir for his passion for the Cadets and the many other programs he supports.
- Captain Adam Hofstein for championing community outreach programs and helping bring them to life.
- Deputy Lauren Herrera, Fire Fighter Eugenio Macias, and administrative assistant Mindy Montalbano who attended the game.
