Dear Business Friend and Community Member,

Please open your hearts and your generous spirit in changing people's lives for the better.   You have the power to make a difference! To raise funds for the coming year, the CHRISTOPHER J. MORRISSEY FOUNDATION will be hosting its 12th Annual Cocktail/Dinner Benefit & Gift Auction. We will send out 600 Announcements and expect to sell out once again.  This is a fantastic opportunity for you to gain exposure and possible new clients.   We serve the Tri-State area including New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.  Our goal is to raise funds to help families affected by the loss of a child by providing grief counseling, financial assistance, burial funds, scholarships, and retreats.  We have also formed partnerships with local organizations to promote early drug and alcohol awareness to local youth groups in Monmouth and Ocean Counties.  We have assisted over 275 families and distributed over $125,000 in services and scholarships since 2011.  Please help us as we continue to serve those in need. We are asking you to sponsor, donate gift cards, or in-kind donations.

As a donor, you will be recognized both before and after the event.   Because our foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, your donation is tax deductible to the full extent of the law.  Our tax identification # is:  45-3583910.  All of our events are entirely funded by individuals and corporate donors.  Your contributions are greatly needed and appreciated!

Please submit your donations by September 9, 2023 to ensure proper recognition at the Benefit and in the Program.  Please visit our website:  www.christopherjmorrisseyfoundation.org to learn about the events and goals of our Foundation.   You can also find us on Facebook @ Christopher J Morrissey Foundation, or on Twitter or Instagram @cjmfoundation.  From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you in advance for your help.  Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further concerns or questions. 

Sincerely yours, Joan Morrissey, CEO and members of the BENEFIT COMMITTEE
