2016 HFEE Spring Gala - An Epic Success!
Few things are as enchanting as springtime along the Seine, and the Holmdel Foundation for Educational Excellence (HFEE) Gala Committee strived to captivate à la Paris in the 2016 Gala. Held in the Navesink Country Club on April 9th, the HFEE’s 14th biennial spring gala, Springtime in Paris, hosted over 250 guests from Holmdel in what became an elegant and record-breaking affair.
Vice Chairperson, Dima Mousselli, spearheaded a two year effort by the Gala Committee to achieve unprecedented success by raising $117,000 toward the Foundation’s Chromebook Initiative. In 2015 and 2016, the HFEE has been instrumental in getting Chromebooks into the hands of every child from second through, now, sixth grade at the Holmdel schools.
