You can help the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN) by attending their Walk For Food Allergy which will take place September 8th in Long Branch.

The walk starts at 10am at the Great Lawn, north of Pier Village, and check in is at 9am. It will be a full day of family fun featuring concerts, face painting, costumed characters, arts and crafts and a bounce house, plus a special appearance by soap opera and TV star Brian Gaskill!

This is a very important event. Did you know that New Jersey is one of the eight states with the highest prevelance of  food allergies? Every three minutes someone in the U.S.A has a food-allergic reaction thatt sends him or her to the emergency room.
