It’s time to break out your cowboy boots and hat because you’re in for a rip roaring good time when The Ellen Hermanson Foundation holds its Denim and Diamonds fundraiser at 230 Elm in Southampton on Saturday, March 18th. The evening will honor Stacy Quarty, President of Lucia’s Angels and Vice President of the Coalition of Women’s Cancers. 230 Elm owner Tim Burke will host the festive affair, with Lisa and Jim Brady as honorary chairpersons.
“The Ellen Hermanson Foundation is excited to once again be presenting Denim and Diamonds,” shared Julie Ratner, Event Chair and Ellen Hermanson Foundation Founder. “Denim and Diamonds is going to be a great party, and we hope that many people will join us to support the important work of the Foundation, which keeps all of its funds within the South Fork community.”
