I have been blessed to have so many amazing people in my life who have done so many amazing things for me. I am turning 40 in a few weeks, and I want to do something amazing for others.  As many know, I work in Camden, NJ at a mental health program for kids called the CASTLE Program.  Children benefit from the program by participating in daily, intensive therapeutic groups that focus on developing coping skills useful to their everyday life.  We also provide and after-school program and outpatient therapy services.  The program is based out of Virtua Health.  The Virtua Foundation is a non-profit that primarily benefits Camden programs run by Virtua, such as CASTLE.

As part of my 40th birthday celebration, I'm raising money to benefit Virtua Health Foundation Inc, and any donation will help make an impact.  Because I want these funds to go directly to the CASTLE Program, I am collecting the funds independently.  GoFundMe does not have a function for non-profit donations to be earmarked within the Virtua Foundation.  The money raised will directly benefit children participating in CASTLE by allowing us to provide programs that support their growth, development, and mental health.  Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
