All That Jazz
11/02/2008
The Clinton Inn, Tenafly
6:00pm-8:30pm

For the past 5 years, Bergen County's United Way has partnered with Phyl's Fund to enrich the lives of those affected by cancer in our community.

Phyl's Fund was established in loving memory of Phyllis Klein of Demarest, NJ, who died following a valiant battle with breast cancer in 2002. The mission of Phyl's Fund is to enrich the lives of those affected by cancer as well as their caregivers, friends and family by serving as a source of group support and expert advice. Phyl's Fund sponsors support groups for individuals affected by cancer and those who care for them.

This annual gala cocktail reception features live music, fine wine, samples of many different culinary delights, and a fabulous silent auction. All of the money raised benefits cancer support groups throughout Bergen County.

This year's event will also feature casino gaming including: Blackjack, Craps, Poker and Roulette.

An evening of Jazz, Casino Games & Auction to benefit those affected by cancer in our community.
