Neuro’s philanthropic efforts extend over many good causes. Last Thursday, we hosted both the cocktail hour and the Juniors Room (with the yet-to-be-released Neuro Juniors line) and helped to raise $1.7 million dollars for the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Women’s Cancer Research Fund. GRAMMY® winners Tim McGraw and Faith Hill were presented the 2010 Courage Award. McGraw serves as Honorary Chairman of the Tug McGraw Foundation, created in honor of Tim’s father Major League Baseball pitcher Tug McGraw, who after his own diagnosis of a malignant brain tumor, dedicated his life to enhance the quality of life of men, women and children with brain tumors. McGraw and Hill together have tirelessly given time, attention and funds from a record number of benefit concerts for cancer and other causes. Emmy® winner Christina Applegate was presented the Nat King Cole Award for her dedication to encouraging awareness and early detection for women at high risk for breast cancer. After her own breast cancer diagnosis through an early, doctor-ordered MRI, Applegate founded Right Action for Women. The event featured a performance by Taylor Swift, the top-selling digital artist in music history, who was nominated for eight awards at the 2010 Grammys ®. Everyone enjoyed a variety of Neuro cocktails and Neuro Drinks, even the children, who were tucked upstairs in their own suite, complete with laptops, art stations and a deejay!
