Young Collectors Raise $10K
The Women’s Board of Wolfson Children’s Hospital held a kick-off event for its First Coast Design Show, the Young Collector’s Party, on Oct. 5. This happy-hour styled event for young professionals and younger mothers celebrated “The Art Of Gathering” with mingling at Michael’s Rug Studio, delicious food, live music by Barrett Thomas, a silent auction and cocktails. Women’s Board President Kendra McCrary and First Coast Design Show Co-chair Emily Magevney also spoke at the event.
The Young Collectors Party encourages a younger generation to get involved and give back to the community, and it raised over $10,000 toward the Women’s Board’s strategic fundraising target of the Kids Kare Mobile ICU, a neonatal and pediatric critical care transport vehicle.
“Our mission is to raise funds and awareness for this very special hospital, where no child is ever denied the very best of care, regardless of ability to pay. Our hospital provides almost $40 million annually in charity and uncompensated care for our ever-increasing geographic area,” said Kate Sager.
Along with Sager, the event committee included Marjorie Davis, Patton Weber, Brittany Portigliatti, Elizabeth Roth and Catherine Wellington.
