MEND Hosts 45th "Fabulous Fifties" Anniversary Celebration

Moorestown Ecumenical Neighborhood Development (MEND) will host its 45th Anniversary annual fundraiser at The Merion in Cinnaminson on Friday, October 24 from 6 to 11 p.m. MEND’s gala fundraiser features dinner, dancing and lots of fun to help the nonprofit support its affordable housing mission in the Burlington County region.

This year’s celebration, “Fabulous Fifties” will be an elegant, glamorous blowout that will bring attendees back to the past. Guests are invited to come “chrome-plated” in their best cocktail or black-tie attire. The celebration will feature the musical stylings of Jump City Jazz and a comedic performance by Tom Ryan, as seen on the Late Show with David Letterman. At the event, MEND will honor two special supporters, Dr. Lucy Rorke-Adams and Linda Rohrer of the William G. Rohrer Charitable Foundation.
