"Cocktails for a Cause,” benefiting The American Red Cross

"Cocktails for a Cause,” benefiting The American Red Cross

"Cocktails for a Cause,” a fundraiser sponsored by the Greater New York Chapter's Young Professionals Committee, was held on October 22 at Le Cirque restaurant on Manhattan"s East Side.

The event drew nearly 100 people and raised much-needed funds for the American Red Cross in Greater New York (ARC/GNY). Savory appetizers, a Red Cross-inspired red raspberry drink and a live DJ were evening highlights.

“I feel honored to lead this Committee and to be a part of an organization that is like no other,” said Committee Chairman Alex McGrath. “Red Cross responds to 8 to 10 disasters a day, whether that be a house fire or a building collapse. New Yorkers have come to rely on this great humanitarian organization whenever disaster strikes.”

ARC/GNY Chief External Affairs Officer Rosemary W. Mackey added, “I applaud the passionate dedication that our Young Professionals Committee has for the work of our Red Cross. The proceeds of this wonderful event are especially welcome as we struggle to fund the vital work our volunteers and employees do each day.”

The Committee, which was inaugurated more than two years ago with 15 members and now totals 35, is dedicated to supporting ARC/GNY’s lifesaving and preparedness initiatives through volunteer work and fundraising activities. Committee members represent a variety of companies in finance, public relations, entertainment and fashion.

To learn more about joining the committee or how you might get involved please contact Lee Stasiulis at stasiulisl@nyredcross.org or visit www.nyredcross.org/youngprofessionals.
