Kathy Romano Guest Bartends to raise money for the Janie Carbo fund!
What: 25% of all sales will go to the fund. There will be an auction with great items such as concert tickets, sporting event tickets, jerseys, jewelry, and more!!!!
Why: To help raise money for Janie Carbo Fund. Janie is a five-year-old, adorable little energetic girl who was born August 20th, 2004 with a rare genetic disorder called MIDAS syndrome (Microphthalmia, Dermal Apalsia, Sclerocornea) which only affects females. MIDAS left Janie blind at birth. Her left eye is under developed which requires her to wear a glass eye. The major expense not covered by insurance is her glass eye. Its considered "cosmetic" even though she needs it to prevent her face from caving in as she grows. The money we raise helps the family get through this without financial issues associated with her illness and adding to their stress. This disorder is so rare Janie was the first case at the children's hospital of Philadelphia. Although the doctors told this precious little girl's parents she would only have 10 months to live, today she is a very loving five-year-old little girl. The Carbos and all of their family and friends are “Dreaming Big” for a happy and healthy future for Janie.

Toxic Fire of 1978 Memorial Fundraiser Beef & Beer
In February of 1978 at what was supposed to be a rubber reclaiming plant at the base of the Commodore Barry Bridge (1 Flower Street), there was a fire that became know as the "Wade Dump Fire."
When the responding personnel arrived on scene the rubber tires were just the icing on the cake for the millions of gallons of illegally dumped chemicals. As a result many men and women that were there and exposed became sick, many died at an early age. Some still continue to remain ill or become sick to this day from the exposure over 30 years ago. None of these people have ever received any recognition for their dedication and service to their community to this day.
We want to change that. We want to have a memorial built on the former site which is now part of Barry Bridge Park next to the new soccer stadium. We will be having a fundraiser at Bootleggers in Woodlyn on May 8th from 5 to 8 PM to help raise funds to build the memorial.

American Cancer Society 2010 Relay For Life
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease. At Relay, teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path.
