In fact, $25 from each paid ticket sold will be donated to Operation Kids.
The NPDF annual awards dinner is our major fundraiser, therefore, please support our efforts. The ticket cost is $125 and includes the infamous “Russo’s on the Bay” enhanced cocktail hour, open bar, full course dinner and entertainment.
A special thank you to the companies who have already made a generous donation to the Chinese Auction.
