Deborah Hospital Foundation’s 15^th Annual Red Tie Gala, held virtual style on Saturday, December 5^th, raised nearly $150,000 for cardiac care at Deborah Heart and Lung Center, New Jersey’s only specialty heart, lung, and vascular hospital, and an Alliance Partner of the Cleveland Clinic Heart, Vascular & Thoracic Institute. The annual Gala supports Deborah’s nearly 100-year mission of never balance billing a patient for care received at the hospital.

This year’s Gala, originally scheduled to be held on November 14^th at the Hilton at Penn’s Landing in Philadelphia, was rescheduled due to the pandemic, and moved to a virtual format.

Emceed by 6ABC News Anchor Rick Williams, and sponsored by numerous businesses, “This year our virtual Gala captured the same elements that our guests have come to enjoy over the years,” said Gala Chair Melissa McGrath. “It was a fun way to safely join together from our homes, while still supporting the important work of Deborah Hospital Foundation.”
