Our Noogieland Teen Volunteers (L-R) Courtney Smith, Eden Nahmani, Lauren Perlman, Julia Zeltner Being one of the Noogieland volunteers has
made me more appreciative of everything. It was great to
see how happy all of the kids are, considering what they go
through. What struck me most is how genuine and nice everyone is at
Gilda's Club. This has been an eye opening experience for me. I feel
lucky to know these kids. They are all special in their own way and
thank you for letting me be part of the Gilda's Club team of volunteers. -Eden Nahmani Allie Silvestri (L) and Marissa Miller (R) Noogiefest was an amazing event because we got
to see how strong all the kids are who are going through something incredibly
hard. It's an awesome feeling to know you might have made their day a little
brighter with some fun and lots of smiles! -Marissa Miller Kimberley Nasseredine
Kimberley Nasseredine, Clinic Patient Access
Associate at the AtlantiCare HealthPlex in Atlantic City, has a big
heart. When she felt she didn’t raise enough money at her first
fundraiser – selling pink starfish in memory or in honor of someone touched
by cancer - Kim immediately implemented Plan B. Kim and her
co-workers and friends at the HealthPlex designed 16 beautiful gift baskets
to raffle. She even used vacation time to promote her fundraiser
to staff and patients at the AtlantiCare Cancer Care Institute! Thank
you, Kimberly & Friends, for your gift of time and talent, and your
donation to Gilda’s Club. Buy a Boardwalk Plank - It makes the perfect gift! Buying a boardwalk plank on the Larry Alper
Boardwalk Mural is a great way to honor someone. You can personalize a
plank in honor of someone, in memory of someone, to thank someone… for any
reason at all! It also makes a great holiday gift! The beautiful mural is located in the hallway
where all of our guests enter the clubhouse. Click here to
purchase a plank!
