Support Gilda’s Club on March 2nd

February 25, 2010

In these difficult economic times, it is easy to forget that there are dozens of not-for-profit organizations that could use our support. One such group is Gilda’s Club, which was recently named one of nine most vulnerable charities in the city by New York magazine.

Gilda’s Club was founded in 1995 in honor of Gilda Radner, the brilliant comedian and original cast member of Saturday Night Live who passed away from ovarian cancer in 1989. Since opening, it has offered a place where men, women and children living with cancer – and their families and friends – can join together to build social and emotional support as a supplement to medical care. They offer support groups, workshops, forums, and even a teen and children’s program, all free of charge.

I am proud to be a co-sponsor of the 1st Annual Gilda’s Club Community Gathering on Tuesday, March 2nd at 6:30pm in support of this indispensable organization. The event will be held at Gilda’s Club, 195 West Houston Street. Suggested donations start at $25. For more information on Gilda’s Club call 212-647-9700 or visit their website (www.gildasclubnyc.org).
