PAC at March of Dimes




Throughout the season we have many stars that grace our stage in Morristown. From Aretha Franklin to Jim Breuer to Bill Cosby, you never know who will show up. But how many know about our young stars in the Performing Arts Company who put on show for our community?

Our Performing Arts Company is made up of teens that represent our organization by performing Broadway-style musical numbers at community events and fundraisers around New Jersey free of charge to the organization. Most recently, on May 1st, they performed at the March of Dimes of Morris County’s annual March for Babies 5K walk held on the campus of Fairleigh Dickinson University in Madison, NJ.

Our young stars opened the entertainment portion of the day by performing a "Music Through The Ages" medley and "Heal The World" by Michael Jackson. This was our first time being a part of a March of Dimes event, and we are thrilled to have this new partnership, and look forward to helping them out with future fundraisers.

Also in attendance were the Real Housewives of New Jersey – Cathy Wakile, Melissa Gorga, Jacqueline Laurita and Caroline Manzo. During the mini-idol talent show at the March of Dimes event, a Real Housewives' daughter took first place over our PAC member Montana Byrne, who won second place. It's okay Montana, you will always be first place with us!
