This year’s honorees include Kathleen DiChiara, founder of the Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ), and Angela Morello Lange, President of Landmark Fire Protection, Inc. Kathleen’s leadership has helped CFBNJ distribute over 90 million meals annually. Angela, a dedicated community leader, is a Trustee for the Boy Scouts of America Patriots’ Path Council (Patriot’s Path Council) and an active Our Lady of Magnificat Church member. Both honorees’ nonprofits, CFBNJ and Patriots Path Council, are among the twelve supported by the Park Avenue Foundation.
“For thirty years, the Spirit of Giving Gala has been a cornerstone of our efforts to support our New Jersey non-profit human service and cultural organizations,” said Andrew Boles, Park Avenue Foundation Board President. “This year, we are even more committed to raising the necessary funds to continue our mission of uplifting those in need and enriching our community through the arts and human services.”
The Gala will feature a live band, City Heat, joining the list of past notable performances by the Jersey Boys, Willy Torres, and Phase One. Attendees can expect an evening of unforgettable performances, beginning with a 90-minute cocktail hour, followed by a night filled with charity and entertainment and an after-party with cigars. There will be silent auction items for bidding throughout the night, including private chef-curated dinners, weekend getaways, rounds of golf at prestigious courses, and much more.
“The Gala celebrates those who dedicate themselves to making a difference in their communities,” says Steve Lindner, President of the Board of Trustees at Park Avenue Club. “This event honors the extraordinary commitment of individuals who go above and beyond to uplift those in need. It’s an opportunity for us to recognize their selflessness and inspire others to follow their example.”
