She and her husband are especially proud of their Big Bad BBQ Bash that has benefited Special Olympics Broward County for the last six years.

When Young Rebuilders Mia Bella and Ava Nepola were little kids, they learned to give back by accompanying their parents, Justin and Jackie, on community service project adventures. They volunteered alongside their parents for everything from beach sweeps and school mural painting to food sorting and distribution. Volunteering was simply a normal family activity.

As they got older, Mia Bella and Ava continued to volunteer on their own. At 12, Ava completed a 24-hour service project at Feeding South Florida. Mia has volunteered at the Florida State House multiple times. They also continue to join their parents – with paint brushes and shovels in hand – helping to revitalize Rebuilding Together homes.

“Stephanie and I are so proud of Mia and Ava’s confidence, strength, determination and desire to give back to others,” said Justin, Mia Bella’s and Ava’s father.  “They have learned many of their best qualities by volunteering for amazing South Florida organizations like Rebuilding Together Broward.”

The family has been recognized for their efforts.  Mia Bella and Ava were awarded the Daily Points of Light Award, which celebrates the power of individuals to lead and lend support to causes they care about. The Nepola family was a top-five finalist for the Disney Points of Light Volunteer Family of the Year and were featured on Good Morning America.

Mia Bella and Ava, now 18 and 14, have learned the value of hard work, leadership and the importance of giving back through community service.  Mia Bella is a senior at Florida Virtual School, and Ava is a freshman at West Broward High.

Alexandra Torti is a senior at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Ft. Lauderdale. She has excelled in her endeavors inside and outside of school. While maintaining a high GPA, extracurricular activities such as Campus Ministry, multiple National Honor Societies, Youth Leadership Broward, and a part-time job, Alexandra found a passion in serving others. She has acquired over 825 service hours with various organizations across Florida and the world.

One of her most impactful achievements was her STAy Home initiative. After working with the missionary organization Youth With a Mission and the Homes of Hope program to build homes in the barrios of Dominican Republic for over 7 years, Alexandra experienced the insurmountable burden of poor living conditions on the needy. Alexandra took action by organizing her own international service project, STAy Home, in May of 2019.

A team composed of students, parents, and friends were assembled to build 2 homes in 2 days for 2 families in San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic. Alexandra raised $42,000, recruited 40 volunteers, organized travel, and lead the team on a volunteer experience of a lifetime and new start for two families. Alex intends to continue her service to others by building and repairing homes for the less fortunate in our community and around the world.
