Courtesy of the Late Knight Warriors (LKW) nonprofit, many will come together in support of one-year-old Jackson Berry amidst his battle with leukemia on November 15th.
The event, billed as “Cocktails for a Cause,” will be held at the Tap Room in Bay Shore from 6 to 9 p.m. that evening. Featured attractions include an appetizer buffet, a signature open bar, and opportunities to participate in a Chinese auction and 50/50 raffle.
A large portion of proceeds, along with 100% of donations made in Jackson’s name, will go directly to the Berry family as they bravely face this perilous and grueling fight.
According to the organization’s news release announcing the event: “Jackson is a bright, resilient one-year-old whose life was recently upended by hospital visits.”
“This cause is deeply personal to us,” said Laura Gottfried, Vice President of LKW. “My own family faced a similar challenge years ago, and I know how much support can help. With Jackson’s father being a friend to several of our members, we felt an urgent need to build that same network of care and support his family in every way we can.”
Tickets can be purchased on the LKW website: https://lateknightwarriors.com/lkw-cocktail-party. Those who cannot attend need not worry about missing out on their opportunity to contribute. They can still donate or purchase 50/50 raffle tickets through the website.
LKW is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 33-1831126) that combines social connection with community impact. All events and initiatives are powered entirely by volunteers, with no board member or organizer receiving compensation.
