CFR Events

Friends of CFR Celebrate Families

Keeping Families Together Thanks to the 250 attendees of Celebrating Families 2011 held at Capitale on November 3rd, CFR raised a record amount of funds to support our work on behalf of New York's children and families!

In attendance were new acquaintances and longtime friends, Board and Junior Board members, CFR program staff, and members of New York’s most prominent law firms, financial institutions, foundations, and more.

CFR was proud to honor Linda I. Gibbs, Deputy Mayor for Health & Human Services, with the Visionary Award, as well as Sidley Austin LLP with the Legal Champion Award.

The event also premiered CFR's newest video featuring client Nicole Franz, a young mother from Queens who reunified her family with CFR's help.  Most excitingly, Nicole was honored with the Spirit Award for being an inspirational parent who embodies the spirit of CFR.
