CABARET FOR A CAUSE II - AN INVITATION FROM THE MRS. NEW JERSEY UNITED STATES PAGEANT DIRECTORS - PLEASE JOIN US!

Dear Family and Friends,

We hope this email finds you well! We are reaching out to you to ask for your support on Saturday, February 7th for a fundraising concert sponsored by the Mrs. New Jersey United States Organization, which will benefit the American Heart Association. We will be hosting our Cabaret for a Cause II: A Heart for our Community, and we would LOVE for you to be a part of it! It will take place at 4:00 p.m. (silent auction preview at 3:30) at the Bart Luedeke Center Theater on the campus of Rider University (2083 Lawrenceville Road, Lawrenceville, NJ). The cabaret will feature performances by professional singers that have performed at the Miss America Pageant, the Apollo Theater, New York City venues, Atlantic City casinos and the Cape May Jazz Festival.

As some of you know, we are the co-directors of the Mrs. NJ US pageant, and our reigning titleholder, Evelyn McCleod, is a volunteer spokesperson for the American Heart Association. Evelyn is heavily involved with the Heart Association through her platform "Healthy, Happy, and Wise," and has helped to raise thousands of dollars this year alone through corporate sponsorship at her employer, and by volunteering at many of the Heart Association's "Start Walks" throughout the state. She is also the volunteer coordinator of Church and Dwight's "Go Red for Women" campaign. Evelyn is so passionate about this cause, and knows personally what it is like to lose a family member to heart disease. We wanted to do something special not only to honor her twin brother's memory, but to help the NJ chapter of the American Heart Association continue its mission: "Building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke."

We sincerely hope you can join us for what is sure to be a fantastic night! We PROMISE you will be thoroughly entertained with several professional singers and many of our local titleholders, in addition to our reigning titleholder Evelyn McCleod! We will also be honoring two individuals in the community with the Champion for a Cause Award and the Triumph Award. Tickets are available on our website http://www.mrsnewjerseyus.com or also at the door that night.

Yours in the spirit of giving,

MRS. NEW JERSEY UNITED STATES DIRECTORS
