Daniel Straus: Healthbridge Valentine’s Day Fundraiser

Head Shot - Daniel E StrausThe Valentine’s Ball took place yesterday, as a fundraiser executed by Daniel Straus.  Healthbridge’s owner organized the evening to support The Valerie Fund that seeks to support children with cancer and blood disorders.  Straus explained that all those working with him for the cause, “feel that there’s no more meaningful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than in support of The Valerie Fund. The work of The Valerie Fund is heartwarming, supporting both superb state-of-the-art outpatient healthcare and emotional support each year for thousands of New Jersey children with cancer and blood disorders. The fund is a wonderful example of love being expressed by giving to others, and we are proud to support it. We’ve set a fundraising goal of $1 million. That’s an ambitious goal but I am confident in the ability of our team to achieve and perhaps even exceed it.”

Various executives and staff at CareOne, HealthBridge Management and Care Virginia have been working hard for this fundraiser.  Of their efforts, Straus said, “I am so proud…“In addition to CareOne executives and team members, residents of many of our Centers raised funds with events such as bake sales and jewelry sales. Many of our vendors and suppliers also participated. This is the CareOne community coming together to help those in need.”

The event was held at Martime Parc, Jersey City, featuring dancing, live and silent auctions, celebrity appearances and more.  Funds will go towards the Valerie Fund Centers as well as Camp Happy Times scholarships.
