Spotlight on Sponsors for MEF Hollywood Lights Adult Social

Madison, N.J. (Oct. 12, 2018) – The Madison Education Foundation (MEF) will host its Fall 2018 “Hollywood Lights” Adult Social on November 2nd, 2018 at The Westin Governor Morris with support from some exceptional area businesses.

The MEF holds two fundraisers a year to support its mission to enhance Madison public schools through teacher-initiated grants: a fall social and a spring 5K run. “We can’t raise the funds we need for teachers without the generosity of local community partners,” said MEF Co-President Colleen Taddeo. “Thanks to some of our new event sponsors, this year’s Hollywood Lights event will be another unforgettable star-studded night for the Madison community.”
Revolution Restaurant -- First Premier Sponsor
Revolution Restaurant www.revolutionmorristown.com on 9 South Street is in nearby Morristown with a local Madison connection. Owned by Jim Cavanaugh, father of Madisonian Danielle Miller, they have been running this family-owned local brew house since 2016 along with the Iron Bar in Morristown for the last 6 years. They are generously sponsoring this year’s event at the Premier Level of $2000.
“Revolution has really jump-started our sponsorship efforts because it is a fun local brew pub and restaurant plus its run by a local Madison family willing to give back to the Madison educational system,” said Diane Ryan, Co-President of MEF. “It’s a huge draw for the event, and we’re grateful to Mr. Cavanaugh and the Miller family for their generous contribution.” www.revolutionmorristown.com
