Volunteers Needed!

Monday, August 8th, 2011

We’re helping the New Jersey chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society with the planning of their Light the Night Walks in October. Five walks take place on the same two Saturdays and this wouldn’t be possible without the 300 volunteers that come out every year to help blow up balloons, check in participants and hand out T-shirts and food and beverage, among other tasks.

Would you like to be added to our volunteer list for one of these events?

Saturday, October 15

Mercer County, Forrestal Village, Princeton

Morris County, Pioneer Park at Headquarters Plaza, 1 Speedwell Ave, Morristown

Saturday, October 22

Camden County, Riversharks Stadium, 401 N. Delaware Ave, Camden

Essex County, Verona Park, Bloomfield Ave, Verona

Monmouth County, Riverside Gardens Park, Red Bank

If so, email ginger@gingerdonnanevents.com the location that works best for you and look out for an email in early September with more information, including timing, roles and responsibilities!

You’re Invited

Thursday, February 24th, 2011

by Ginger Donnan

It’s almost the spring event season, which means we’re working on invitations galore. Looking for a gala dinner to attend? Consider Autism Speaks’ Face-Off for a Cure on March 21 or their Tri-State Corporate Committee’s Inauguaral Gala on April 15:

Invitation pg 1

For the more education-focused, we have The Newmark School’s Annual Art Show on May 6, which is open to the public for a mere $25 per person (wine, cheese and incredible art viewing included). 

Although we have law firm and pharma meetings, two education conferences and two human rights conferences coming down the pike, those are by invitation only, sorry!

But stayed tuned for invitations to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s NJ Light the Nights in autumn!

Celebrating Generosity

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

By Ginger Donnan

This Saturday, 5,000 people are expected to pay tribute and bring hope to thousands of people battling blood cancers at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night Walks in New Jersey at Princeton’s Forrestal Village and at Verona Park.

Funds raised for these events support lifesaving research that has contributed to major advances in the treatment of blood cancers and treatments for other types of cancer. Those who raise $100 or more to help fight blood cancer are provided a wrist band, which entitles walkers to enjoy food, refreshments and entertainment, along with illuminated balloons and Light the Night t-shirts.

Over 50 vendors have donated their products and services to make these two events possible. We’ve been overwhelmed by the generosity of small and large businesses alike and just wanted to highlight a few of them:

In Verona, live music will be provided by LIVIN, an upbeat, funky rock band. LIVIN will also perform at the Morristown Light the Night Walk the following Saturday and has even formed a fundraising team.

Another band, joining us in Princeton and at the Camden Light the Night Walk the following Saturday, is M.E.R.C.K., made up of 11 and 12 year old kids performing hits by the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Weezer, Blink 182, Bon Jovi and Guns and Roses, among others.

Both bands will be joined by DJ A.D. Of Remixnetwork in Princeton and Soundbar Entertainment in Verona.

We’d also like to thank JR Floral Designs for their donation of 2,000 carnations and Art Digital for their time and effort in creating the signage for the event.

With generous partners like these, Saturday is guaranteed to be an inspirational night. Please visit www.lightthenight.org/nj to join us!

Fighting Cancer on the Fairway

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

For the 14th year, our client the Family Reach Foundation is having their annual Golf Classic and Dinner Reception and spots are still available! This year’s event is taking place at the Brooklake Country Club in Florham Park, New Jersey on Monday, July 26.

Family Reach Foundation provides financial relief and heartfelt support to families fighting through the overwhelming challenges and costs of cancer. Co-founded by the Colangelo and Morello families, in honor of their children who lost their fights to pediatric cancer, Family Reach helped over 300 families in 2009 – almost one family per day!

In addition to golf and dinner spots, sponsorship packages are still available including the $750 Compassion Sponsor with these benefits:

• Logo prominently placed on dinner program
• Logo/link on Family Reach Foundation website
• Signage at designated areas
• Two (2) guests for dinner

Over 140 golfers and 300 dinner attendees are expected from the Northern New Jersey area and this is a great opportunity to market local businesses to the community as well as to enjoy some golf, food and philanthropic fun.

To sign up for a sponsorship or to attend, click here. We look forward to seeing you there!
