On May 19^th. 2022 our first Annual Charity Golf & Banquet was held at the Heron Glen Golf Course, where we raised over. $30,000. With the money raised, we established a Financial Need Assistance Application and an Academic Application. To date we have assisted two individuals one with asthma and one with physical disabilities. In addition, we have established a scholarship for graduating seniors at Bridgewater Higher School, donated to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America and working closely with NJ PLAN to find ways we can help

 Our Annual Charity Golf & Banquet will take place on May 18, 2023, at Heron Glen Golf Course. Our goal is to raise money for individuals with asthma and physical disabilities. In summer of 1994, Alessandra and her twin sister, Adrianna were born three months early to Anne Marie and Lawrence Del Principe. Shortly after being released from the neonatal center, both Alessandra and Adrianna were diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Anne Marie and Lawrence devoted all their love and attention to making sure that their baby girls had every possible chance to live a normal and fulfilling life. Alessandra and her sister led wonderful fulfilling lives and met the men whom they planned to be their forever partners.

May 1st was Adrianna's long-awaited wedding to Josh with Alessandra as a maid of honor. The room was bright with sunlight beaming through the glass ceiling high above. The conservatory was the perfect place for this celebration. After the ceremony had concluded and family photographs were taken, we convened for the festive cocktail hour. The speeches were given, and dancing soon followed. Alessandra danced with her father and then with her future fiancé, Jeff. Shortly after this, Alessandra suffered a severe asthma attack. Several guests who are medical professionals tried desperately to help her breathe. The EMT arrived and worked feverishly to sustain her breathing. She was transported to the hospital. While Lawrence and Jeff were by her side, family and friends kept Adrianna and Josh focused on their wedding celebration. Unfortunately, Alessandra passed away early the next morning, at the age of twenty-seven. Alessandra’s dreams and aspirations were taken away. Alessandra had a smile that could light up a room and was always helping those in need. In her memory, the "A Breath for Alessandra" charity was created to continue her legacy of helping others, especially those suffering from asthma and other conditions. 

We can't meet our goal without the help of people/companies like you/yours. That's why I'm writing to you. Would you consider donating any amount in dollar contributions or products to help sponsor our event? By giving to A Breath for Alessandra, you'll be able to help us accomplish goal of helping those with asthma and save lives. In appreciation of your donation, we will place your company’s logo on the webpage.

 We hope that we can count on your help to make this year's event one of our best yet!
