On Thursday, September 26 the Team Fox Young Professionals of New York City headed to Tribeca Cinemas to host a fun-filled premiere party in celebration of 'The Michael J. Fox Show' debut on NBC. Joined by nearly 200 fans and supporters, the YPs offered guests an open bar featuring wine by Wolffer Estate, delicious finger foods courtesy of Fatty Crab, tasty cupcakes from Two Little Red Hens and a late-night spread of cheesy New York pizza. Proceeds from the event raised nearly $6,000 in support of The Michael J. Fox Foundation. Congrats!

The Team Fox Young Professionals of New York City were founded in 2009 and have raised nearly $100,000 thus far in support of MJFF. While a large portion of proceeds come from their Annual Sunday Funday event, held each April, the YPs also host a variety of other events and fundraisers throughout the year. Plans are currently in the works to launch a new, formal event this winter-- stay tuned!
