The 14th Annual Spring Luncheon, presented by
Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE), takes place on
Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at Cipriani 42nd Street. All
proceeds will benefit FARE, a national nonprofit
organization with the mission of ensuring the safety and
inclusion of individuals with food allergies while
relentlessly seeking a cure. FARE was founded as a result of
the 2012 merger between the nation’s leading food allergy
organizations, the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN)
and the Food Allergy Initiative (FAI), which had sponsored
the Luncheon since 1999.
This year’s luncheon will honor two mothers of children with
food allergies, Laura Tisch Broumand and Amie Rappoport
McKenna, for their commitment to research, education and
awareness.
Abbey Braverman, Roxanne Palin and Stephanie
Winston Wolkoff are this year’s Co-Chairs. Melissa
Rosenbloom is the Event Advisory Chair. Jessica Mukasey
Barkoff, Elizabeth Hecker, Jamie Lichtenberg, Lana Platin
and Amanda Poses are the Goodie Bag Co-Chairs. Liana
Silverstein Backal, Jolie Goldring, Nicole Lenner, Melissa
Meyers and Jennifer Fisherman Ruff are the Raffle Co-Chairs.
The guest speaker is Dr. Kari C. Nadeau, associate professor
of pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine.
WABC-TV news anchor Lori Stokes, who is personally affected
by food allergies, is the mistress of ceremonies. The
luncheon begins at 11:00 a.m. and support levels are as
follows: Tables are available for $15,000, $10,000 and
$7,500, and individual tickets are available for $2,000,
$1,000, and $500.
