Angela's House Hosts Their 3rd Annual Holiday Party

Angela's House hosted it's 3rd annual Party December 1st and December 2nd, for the organization's medically fragile children and their families.

Arthur Krantz’s ‘We Care for Kids’ sponsored the 3rd annual Angela’s House Holiday Party last weekend, December 1st and December 2nd, for the organization’s medically fragile children and their families. The two fun-filled days took place at a hall donated by The Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 25 in Hauppauge, NY. 

Each year the children, their parents and siblings, and the entire organization look forward to the Holiday Season and the magnificent party that they are able to attend, in hopes of spreading some of the Holiday Spirit. Upon walking into the room, guests experienced the magical décor including tons of balloons and stuffed animals, toys, inflatables, lights, and more. “It’s like taking the kids to Disney for the day,” said organization founder, Bob Policastro, “it’s beyond belief.”

The main sponsor of the event, Arthur Krantz and his organization We Care For Kids, also provided entertainment for the children, as Krantz was dressed as King Arthur. Many others donated their time to making this party a success, as well, including medical staff from Stony Brooks Children’s Hospital who helped supervise the children.

Another parent, John Kristen, commented, “Thank you for the amazing holiday party on Sunday! Ava especially loved the kick-line dancing girls!”
