Neuro Challenge Foundation for Parkinson’s celebrated its 10-year anniversary March 24 with Cause 4 Hope — Cheers to 10 Years.
For the past decade, NCF has been working to help those diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and to guide their family members through the challenges they face.
For its 10-year anniversary, the organization honored supporter Gerri Aaron.
“My experience has shown me that the Neuro Challenge Foundation is an accomplished and benevolent, caring organization assisting Parkinson’s patients and their caregivers in managing this disease,” Aaron told NCF.
To celebrate the evening, guests gathered in the Michael’s On East atrium for cocktails and conversations. Guests were also able to purchase bracelets for the chance raffle, featuring more than 30 prizes.
After cocktail hour, partygoers made their way into the ballroom for dinner, a welcome from President Kathie Musto and Co-Chairwoman Kate Walsh-Honea, music by Jonathan Cortez and a live auction. A presentation from Executive Director Robyn Faucy-Washington followed.
