The amazing KidSanctuary Campus, as a beneficiary of our chapter’s 2nd annual signature Take a Seat event, has become near and dear to our hearts. We were honored to be invited to the Grand Opening of the cottage for boys, known as Sam’s Cottage.
IFDA Members and guests joined in the celebration for a wonderful evening and the big reveal. Above are President Elect Elizabeth Zecca, Lou Sciarrone, Member Lynn Sciarrone, guest Rose Arevalo, Member and Co-Chair for Take a Seat, Beverly Stewart, Member Tom Daughtery, Member Marsha Koch, and Member Vicki Kirsner.
The team of wonderfully talented Interior Designers who created the interiors of Sam’s Cottage was headed by the amazing Joe Fava. Above, Joe along side Marlo Massey, Executive Director on the left and Connie Frankino, Founder of KidSanctuary Campus are thrilled at the home Joe and the other designers created just for boys.
