Nostalgia Night with “Frank Sinatra” - A Night of the American Songbook

This event turned out to be a wonderful success! Over 230 people joined us for a night of fantastic music, dancing, food and libations. A special thanks to Phil Paleologos for his tireless efforts on behalf of the Foundation, as well as his usual phenomenal job as our Master of Ceremonies. Thank you to the Board of Directors of the Foundation whose efforts helped to make this event such an uplifting evening.

All funds raised will go toward supporting the future of the Foundation in its efforts to ensure that the people of greater New Bedford have access to high quality, affordable health care.

A most sincere thank you to all of you who attended the event. It is because of generous people like you that we are able to continue our quest.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Greetings,

The Foundation has been active in raising money and awareness for various programs at the Greater New Bedford Community Health Center since our last entry. We have worked to assist Women’s Health in establishing itself as a viable and vital part of the Health Center. We have collaborated with Lifespan of Rhode Island to bring high quality pediatric sub-specialties such as Cardiology, Gastroenterology and Immunology to the Pediatrics department. Additionally, we have raised money for the Wellness Connection at the Health Center to assist in the establishment of programs in Nutrition, Smoking Cessation, and Diabetes Counseling. We are in the process of developing a Cooking Healthy program which will be demonstrated by Master Chef George Karousos. Future fundraising events include a Road Race, and a Nostalgia Night. Please visit our blog for further updates.

I want to thank the greater New Bedford Community for your continued support and encouragement.

Robert Nochimow
