Organizers say fundraiser in Manalapan was a success

This is an open letter of thanks to all who supported our fundraiser “Raising Hope for Others” on Aug. 15 in Manalapan. The sun and rain were on our side and as a result we had a terrific turnout.

Funds that were raised will go directly to offset Peter Jastrzembski’s medical expenses and to Gabriel Garcia’s battle with leukemia and other nonprofit corporations and foundations that support children’s causes and cancer research.

We would like to thank all of the local businesses and friends that donated money and items for the silent auction. Special thanks to the following businesses for their generous donations of equipment and services: Spotlight on You with D.J. Ryan Galway and Acme Party Rentals.

If you were unable to attend but would like to give a donation, please send it to 461 Tennent Road, Manalapan, NJ 07726 and make checks payable to “Raising Hope for Others Inc.,” a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. All donations are being deposited in a segregated account with TD Bank.

God bless you and please keep all of our recipients in your prayers.
