Roaring Twenties Event Raises Half a Million Dollars for Milford Regional!

HOSTED BY IMPERIAL CHEVROLET in Mendon on October 30, this year’s Mélange event drew 330 guests donned in their favorite prohibition era attire. Attendees enjoyed a night of festivities and dancing while supporting a very important cause - The Breast Center at Milford Regional. Funds totaling over $500,000 were raised through sponsorships, donations and a live auction. “Every year, Mélange plays a vital role in furthering the work of the Medical Center,” explains Sheba Pai, development officer at the Foundation. “This year’s event was extremely successful and revealed a true reflection of the community’s support for the Medical Center and The Breast Center.”

During the past six years, the Mélange event has become a shining example of our neighbors coming together to support Milford Regional. For the Medical Center to continue providing the most advanced care possible, support from the community is vital. “We are very grateful for the tremendous level of support we received for The Breast Center from the community and from Kevin Meehan, owner of ImperialCars.com,” adds Martin Richman, vice president of philanthropy and executive director of the Foundation. “Mélange has become a must-attend event in this area, and we have no one to thank but the residents who have attended past events and spread the word about our cause.”
