We Get By With A Little Help from Our Friends 

 

It’s during tough times when you find out who your true friends are, and CARES has definitely seen some tough times. Although we faced a devastating fire in February that destroyed our offices, we never closed our doors—not even for one day. The only way we were able to do this was through the generous support of our friends, who rallied on our behalf with emergency funding, donations, and help with fundraisers. We cannot thank you all enough!

 

Rotary Club to the Rescue! The Rotary Club of Chatham, Millburn & Short Hills provided CARES with emergency funding in the wake of the fire that destroyed CARES offices. Junior League Saves the Day! The Junior League of The Oranges and Short Hills came to CARES’ aid in the weeks following the fire with the donation of supplies and a generous grant for rebuilding.

Special thanks to our corporate and foundation donors who helped us through this most difficult time.

Healthcare Foundation of NJ
Karma Foundation
Rolex USA, Inc.
Pfizer, Inc.
PerkinElmer

We would also like to thank our numerous members who so generously gave and allowed us to continue our work as the only US organization devoted entirely to the CAH community.
