Monmouth Regional Chamber's Caring with Karaoke at Stone Pony

The 2019 Annual Caring with Karaoke event, hosted by the Monmouth Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Young Professionals Group, will benefit Monmouth County nonprofit, Kick Cancer Overboard. This annual event, held this year on Wednesday, March 27th from 7:00 pm – 11:00 pm at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, is expected to draw more than 300 supporters. Featuring a live karaoke contest on the famous Stone Pony stage, guests will also enjoy prizes, open karaoke, tricky tray items and much more. This year’s contest judges include Maximo Sorrentino, Marketing Director at HomesIN.com and Nick Marra, guitarist for local band Nightfires.

The mission of Kick Cancer Overboard is to give away free cruises to people affected by cancer. Kick Cancer Overboard has awarded more than 300 free cruises to date.

“It is a great honor to be the nonprofit beneficiary of the Monmouth Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Caring With Karaoke event,” said Ted Friedli, co-founder of Kick Cancer Overboard. “This event has been a staple in our community, and we’re incredibly grateful to have such support of our mission. Cancer causes so much strife and worry – we hope that the cruises we provide alleviate at least some of that burden for a few days. The Chamber’s Young Professionals Group does a wonderful job providing a great event for an important cause, and we’re happy to be a part of it this year.”

Founded in 2010, Kick Cancer Overboardorganizes various local fundraisers throughout the year to support a specific family or individual on a free cruise for a few days.

“As survivors and caretakers, we understand the challenges of the cancer journey for our cruisers. This event will help lift the spirits of many,” said Donnalyn Giegerich, co-founder of Kick Cancer Overboard.
