Party for Pete

I am excited to report that we are fast approaching $14,000 for this year’s Party For Pete.  This exceeds last year’s amount of $12,800.  It is completely amazing to me how we continue to grow every year.  It is a wonderful testament to both Peter’s memory and to the generosity of the community of people who come together to support this event.  We are so very proud to promote the work of the CF Foundation in such a significant way. Photos will be posted soon!

4th Annual Party For Pete

Saturday July 31st from 730-10pm @

The Wonder Bar in Allston

Mark you calendars!

Tell all your friends!

$40 includes food and open bar as well as 1 raffle ticket.

All $ goes to the Cystic Fibrosis foundation.

The Party For Pete was an incredible success this year. Last week we brought a check for $12,800 to the CF Foundation offices in Natick. They are so pleased with our efforts.
They indicated that we are the most successful – in terms of amount of money raised – of all their “volunteer” fundraisers.
We all should feel so proud!
What a tribute to Peter’s memory and how great it is to think we are doing something to make those with CF have hope for the future and a chance for a better life today.

Thank you!

Best always,
Fern

Thank you all for coming out and making
The 3rd Annual Party for Pete
