Local Business To Raise Funds

When a head injury caused by an explosion at the World Trade Center sent their cousin into a coma earlier this summer, diSalvo Interiors' mother-daughter design team decided to hold a benefit to raise money for his cause. The benefit will be held on November 15 at the diSalvo Interiors showroom in conjunction with the Brain Injury Association of New York State, Lorraine Bracco of The Sopranos and Golden Globe-nominated actress, producer and director Penny Marshall. The Showroom is located at 840 Franklin Avenue in Garden City and tickets can be purchased by calling 516.873.6011. The benefit will feature:

• A keynote address to educate guests about brain trauma

• Some of the finest and most unique silent auction items including original art, luxury accessories, exclusive event tickets and spa and hotel packages

• live entertainment, cocktails and gourmet cuisine

• Wealthy residents of NY and Long Island
