Fundraising Update

 

Blue Jeans & Sequins a Success!!!

On July 29, 2006 the “Blue Jeans and Sequins” Fundraiser was held at the JW Marriott Cherry Creek in Denver, Colorado.

The night included a silent auction with a casino as well. We raised over $14,000.00 after all the expenses were paid.

I’d like to extend a special “Thank You” to our sponsors: Quest Diagnostics, Belles and Beaus Academy, Tom and Kim Konkel, Tom and Tricia McCann, Chip and Melinda Hunnings, and Dean and Colleen Pisciotta.

We had close to 80 friends and family join us and we hope to double the numbers with our next event.

Most of all, we, the Heinze Family, would like to thank CARES for all they do and have done for us and all the other CARES members.

Please remember if you are in the Denver area to join us for our next event and bring your friends! Everyone that attended the event had a great time and we’re sure to have an even better time next year.

Employee Giving
 

We thank members

for designating CARES in each of their
companies’ employee giving programs. We
also thank all members, their friends and
families who donate through the United Way

We truly appreciate your support.

Gabi Flaum raised money for CARES with a Snack Sale at
Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel, South Orange, New Jersey.
Thank You, Gabi!!!

       

Bibbero is the Best!

We are tremendously grateful to the wonderful people at Bibbero Systems, Inc. for choosing CARES in their
employee giving campaign. Donations from Bibbero employees are matched by the company and making a huge
difference in our ability to provide free services to the CAH community and fund research for a cure.

We are particularly grateful to Steve Hackett for approaching Bibbero on our behalf and Dan Hackett, Steve’s son,
for educating Bibbero employees about CAH and CARES.

Of course, none of this would be possible without help of Bibbero President Mike Buckley for choosing to match
employee donations and the Bibbero employees for choosing CARES.

Thank You!!!
