Tailgate for a Cause Raises Nearly $40K

photoThe 13th annual Tailgate for a Cause was held on Sunday, December 4 in the parking lot outside MetLife Stadium prior to the New York Giants game against the Green Bay Packers.

Although the hometown Giants fell in the final seconds to the undefeated Green Bay Packers, 38-35, participants of Tailgate for a Cause raised nearly $40,000 to benefit The NephCure Foundation in honor of Jed Silverman, a 3-year-old Nephrotic Syndrome patient.
Tailgate for a Cause included food provided by the famous chefs at Tao, Lavo and Lure; drinks poured by the fabulous bartenders from Avenue and Lavo Night Club; music; luxury VIP buses with HDTVs for football viewing; live and silent auctions; rare sports memorabilia; cigar rollers; raffles; box pools and much more.  Participants then either went into the stadium or stayed at the tailgate and watched the game in the parking lot.

NephCure thanks the Silverman family, Mark Goldstein, Paul Goldstein, Dan Cohen, David Bernstein, Brian Wraith, Andrew Goldberg, Josh Capon, Michael Kolin, many more and event sponsor Section 16h Group.
