COCKTAILS FOR A CAUSE!

Upcoming Event: May 3rd - COCKTAILS FOR A CAUSE!

Join us for an evening of fun, food and drinks as we raise money for a child in need, Christian Stieler.

http://www.giveforchris.com

Christian is a bright-eyed 13 year-old boy who contracted a degenerative blood disorder shortly after birth. This infection spawned a growing war between Christian’s body and his kidneys making him have to go through a kidney transplant at a very young age. Christian was able to get a transplant early on but, after 11 years with his new kidney, it is now in a state of decline. For years, Christian has been in and out of hospitals experiencing symptoms stemming from issue with his kidneys and without another transplant, it will only continue.

All things considered, Christian has been able to live and maintain a normal childhood. He loves going to Yankee stadium, has a lot of friends, loves video games and making fun of his dad whenever he gets the chance. However, as time went on, he realized that he wasn’t growing as fast as the other kids in his Brooklyn neighborhood.

Over the years, medical expenses have been building and now Christian is in need of another kidney transplant.

Let's come together to help Christian and the Stieler family in their time of need.
