TRICKY TRAY TO BENEFIT KIDS WITH CANCER, TO BE HELD OCTOBER 17 AT BIRCHWOOD MANOR, WHIPPANY!

By Andrea Inauen
The Fighting Children’s Cancer Foundation (FCCF), www.fccf.info., will have its 11th annual Tricky Tray fundraising event on Friday, October 17, 2014 at the Birchwood Manor, Whippany to benefit kids with cancer and their families. Tickets are $49 per person and include dinner and a sheet of regular prize tickets. 
This FCCF signature event offers the chance to win from 200+ fun baskets and prizes while helping area kids and families.  The event is run by Patrise Danzi, of Boonton, whose son courageously battled cancer as a young child.  He is a teenager now, and the family is committed to helping other families who are fighting this cancer battle.  Register before October 1st and you can purchase a special prize ticket package, valued at $50, for only $35!
FCCF provides needs-based financial assistance to families struggling with pediatric cancer in New Jersey.  FCCF has helped hundreds of families to provide support when a parent’s income goes down or expenses go up as a result of their child’s cancer diagnosis.  FCCF is different than many other organizations in that it helps with non-medical expenses that become a hardship for families when their child is sick.  Assistance includes, but is not limited to:  mortgage/rent expenses, utilities, transportation to and from the treatment center, food and unforeseen home costs that pose hardship for a family.
“Participation by members of the community for our fundraising events is what allows us to do what we do.  The Tricky Tray is a great, spirited event that can serve as a date night out or a girls’ get together, and the impact on kids is tremendous”   states Andrea Inauen, Executive Director.
For tickets or more information on the Tricky Tray, call Patrise Danzi at 973-227-4221 or visit the web site at www.fccf.info. Join us on Oct. 17th and we hope you get to take home lots of prizes!
