The Knights of Columbus Our Lady of Perpetual Help Council 794 proudly hosted its Third Annual St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Fundraiser at Pino’s Wine Bar in Lindenhurst, bringing together residents, local businesses, and community leaders for another successful evening benefiting children and families in need.
The event was graciously hosted by Brother Knight Anthony Cucinella, owner of Pino’s Wine Bar, whose continued generosity has helped make the annual fundraiser a community tradition. Serving as Honorary Chairman was Lindenhurst Mayor Mike Lavorata, while Lindenhurst GOP Chairman Joseph Barone returned as the event’s major sponsor, demonstrating his ongoing commitment to supporting charitable causes throughout the community.
Guests enjoyed an evening of food, fellowship, raffles, and fundraising, with all proceeds benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and its mission of ensuring that no family ever receives a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food.
Adding to the generosity of the evening, Nicole Sutch donated her winnings from the event’s 50/50 raffle back to the fundraiser, further increasing the total amount raised for St. Jude’s.
“Our Third Annual St. Jude fundraiser is another outstanding example of what can be accomplished when our local businesses, elected officials, community organizations, and residents come together for a common purpose,” said Grand Knight Patrick Corcoran. “We are incredibly grateful to Anthony for once again opening his doors, Mayor Mike for serving as our Honorary Chairman, Joseph Barone for his generous sponsorship, and Nicole for her remarkable act of generosity in donating her 50/50 winnings back to the cause. Together, we are making a real difference in the lives of children and families who need it most.”
The Knights of Columbus extend their sincere appreciation to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and supported the event. Their continued generosity ensures that this annual fundraiser remains one of the Council’s signature charitable efforts and reflects the spirit of service that makes the Lindenhurst community so special.
