BETHLEHEM, PA<\/strong> – The Judith Adele Agentis Charitable Foundation (JAACF), a Bethlehem-based non-profit, awarded Julie Downs, a DeSales University 2017 communications graduate, with the Judie\u2019s Heart Award, recognizing Ms. Downs for her excellence and commitment in marketing, messaging and visuals for JAACF.<\/p>\n

\u201cJulie was instrumental in the success of the marketing and planning of the sixth annual JAACF Benefit Dinner held at Blue Event Center, says Tina Cantelmi Agentis, Public Relations and Event Planner for JAACF.<\/p>\n

The dinner event, Reaching High Notes, was held March 23rd at Blue Event Center and raised more than $12,000. The funds will be earmarked \u00a0to help JAACF to continue the delivery of nutritious comfort meals to families and guests at St. Luke\u2019s Hospice House, according to Robert Agentis, founder of JAACF.<\/p>\n

\u201cMore than 16,000 meals have been delivered to hospice house guests, staff and families since 2013,\u201d adds Agentis.<\/p>\n

St. Luke\u2019s Health Network, and Better Homes and Gardens\/Cassidon Realty served as co-presenting sponsors.<\/p>\n

Steve Balshi of Bethlehem was awarded \u201cJAACF Volunteer of the Year.\u201d<\/p>\n

In all, 110 guests attended the dinner dance that included a cocktail hour with music by Ginger and the Schnappes, followed a poignant message from Dr. Ric Baxter, medical director at St. Luke\u2019s Hospice House.<\/p>\n

Additionally, a special video message was presented to JAACF by Dan Roebuck, actor, director, and creator of the film, \u201cGetting Grace.\u201d<\/p>\n

After dinner, the sounds of Philly Funk Authority keep the party going. Fine art from Rigo Peralta, Tina Cantelmi, Ward Van Haute, Judy Simone, Bruce Ward, Kim Hogan, and Virginia Abbott put an artful spin on the fundraiser for the evening.<\/p>\n
