On Thursday, April 30, the NMF celebrated another successful event, Heartworks: The Marfan Gala, with NBC's Brian Williams and Hoda Kotb serving as masters of ceremonies. The following morning, on the Today Show, Hoda talked about her evening with us and they showed some photos.
We are so grateful to Hoda, Brian and NBC for their continued commitment to the NMF, and thank all Heartworks supporters – every dollar counts!
Photos from the event have also been posted on-line, thanks to Ann Watt, a former Tall Club member who now works for NY Social Diary. Stay tuned for more photos (and fundraising results) in the next couple of weeks on the NMF website and in the Spring issue of Connective Issues.
