Angels on the Bay + Team Valentina Fitness Challenge!
Fitness for a cause!
began a new chapter entering our 21st year of Angels On The Bay, the story of Valentina Marie Allen, the child known to have “Half a Heart But Twice The Fight” reassures us we must continue our endeavors to raise funds and awareness for children who need a little miracle. She was a blessing and joy to those who were fortunate enough to have her in their lives. Valentina who was the great-granddaughter of one of our long time Board Members, Nicholas LoPrinzi, was a fighter for the two years she was with us. Born with HLHS – hypoplastic left heart syndrome, heterotaxy, and asplenia, she underwent many surgeries but lost her battle on May 12, 2015. She is now a Princess amongst the Angels in heaven forever watching over us all. This Angel is now serves as our guardian, our inspiration, as we continue in our journey.
Established in 1994, Angels On The Bay believes there are people like you and I who are seeking hope in a troubled and confused world, a cure from prolonged illness and fatal disease and an answer to a special prayer.
Our mission is to support the programs and facilities that provide quality health care and services to our children, to seek knowledge and compassion from those who give hope and genuine care to all and share our beliefs and enthusiasm for the positive power of commitment, family and community.
We believe that Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder and the keepers of dreams. We are all Angels in training…we need only recognize the power of potential.
The Angels On The Bay are not only be a celebration of food, wine, music and dance, but a marriage of pure giving ,to benefit children in need of specialized care and a little miracle.
Angels on the Bay is a 501 (C) 3 charitable organization. Contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
