BVMI's 7th Anniversary Gala

BVMI's 7th Anniversary Gala will be on September 21, 2016 from 6PM-9:00PM at the Indian Trail Club in Franklin Lakes, NJ.

BVMI’s 7th Anniversary Gala will be September 21, 2016 from 6pm – 9pm, held at the newly-renovated Indian Trail Club located at 830 Franklin Lake Road, Franklin Lakes. Proceeds from this annual event will benefit BVMI, which provides free primary care to low-income, working Bergen County adults who do not have health insurance.

This annual event provides an opportunity to recognize individuals and organizations that play a part in helping BVMI provide critical healthcare to our patients. This year we will be honoring Quest Diagnostics with the Corporate Leadership Award, and the radiology departments at all five Bergen County hospitals.

The evening will begin with a cocktail reception and fabulous silent auction, followed by dinner and recognition of the honorees. More information, go to www.bvmigala.org. Tickets are $225 and may be purchased on the website or by contacting Samantha Poremba at 201.518.8487 or sporemba@bvmi.net. The BVMI 7th Anniversary Gala is sponsored by Quest Diagnostics, Hackensack University Medical Center, BD and TD Bank.
