(Palm Beach, FL) Pop goes the Prosecco! Pop go the
fireworks! And POP goes Palm Beach’s newest young friends’
event – FoundCare’s POP! Party On the Plaza, scheduled
for Sunday, May 3 to benefit the area’s new Community Health
Center. Co-chairmen, Andrea and Brian Kosoy, John Tatooles and
Victor Moore, Elisabeth and Adam Munder, and Sara Groff and
Piper Quinn popped the cork to toast their host committee
recently at a “Come as You Are” party at Tatooles and Moore’s
beautiful home.
More than 50 of the area’s young philanthropists gathered
poolside in support of the Community Health Center’s mission to
serve the primary healthcare needs of Palm Beach County’s
uninsured and underinsured children and adults.
“I’m really inspired by this group’s commitment to
our cause,” said Steven Stolman, director of development for
FoundCare. “Within a 29,000 sq. ft.
facility at 2330 South Congress Avenue, those who would normally
have no place else to turn but overcrowded hospital
emergency rooms will be seen with dignity and compassion, with
fees based on their ability to pay. No one will ever be turned
away from the Community Health Center due to inability to pay.
The POP! committee really understands the critical importance of
healthcare access. Made up of young families and professionals,
they are truly committed to calling attention to this cause with
a not-to-be-missed, fun event!”
Set under the stars, in a clear tent at Royal
Poinciana Plaza, POP! will offer guests an opportunity to
support FoundCare with a live dance band, cocktails and desserts
– along with a perfect view of the fireworks across the
waterway. Event tickets are $100 per person.

Castagna, K. Chisolm, Earl Crittenden, Mona de Sayve, Russ
DeLuca, Bob Dowling, Chris Drake, Daniel Drennan, Bill Eubanks,

new Community Health Center -- a “one-stop shop” offering
primary care and preventive services including medical diagnosis
and treatment. Dental services and pharmacy services will be
added in the future. In addition, Community Health Center staff
will include referral specialists to help patients access the
specialty medical and social services that they need. The new
Center is currently open to patients Monday through Friday.
