The Addi and Cassi Fund Presents:
Moonlight Garden Gala
A benefit for Childhood Alzheimer’s (NP-C)
On Saturday, May 10, 2008, 1000 friends and family joined us for a sold out star-filled night at the new Downtown Reno Ballroom to help find a cure to “Childhood Alzheimer’s” (Niemann-Pick Type C), a rare, progressive and fatal neurological disease that is robbing children of all ages around the world of their ability to walk, talk, or even remember the name of their favorite stuffed animal.
The event was a mystical evening of hope, wonder and childhood dreams as we honored our four-year-old twins, Addi and Cassi Hempel, and children all over the world who suffer from Niemann Pick Tyep C. Our guests will be treated to an elegant evening with a celebrity performance by Meilnda Doolittle and Terry Fator. We held silent and live auctions, uplifting music in this enchanting atmosphere and transformed the ballroom into a beautiful moonlit garden, designed in the spirit of a child’s imagination, with tree-lined paths, twinkle lights, fireflies and a fountain of wishes.
Hello,
I am a hairstylist here in Reno and I would like to donate a haircut or two to the silent auction. My client Denise was the one that told me about your story and I would love to help in any way possible. Best of wishes are being sent your way.

Hi … perhaps I can donate some photography for the silent auction. And maybe the framer at the top of the list here can frame them? I’m happy to try to help the best I can. Good luck!
I am available to do whatever you need in order to help with your fundraiser. Let my daughter, Lisa Williams, know and she can pass the info on to me. I’m sure you know how my heart goes out to all of you.
Hi
My name is Christel Citko and I am the owner of Art Source Gallery at 9748 So. Virginia St.
It goes without saying that I will contribute to the fundraiser at the Silver Legacy for silent auction, etc.
I would also be glad to donate funds somehow thru gallery framing or sales. I do not know if you have access to an email list and can tell people that if they mention the Hempel fund when they come in for framing or buy art thru May – we will donate 5% of the total sale to your fund.
If you have any ideas as to how we can help as a gallery – please speak up. My gallery is very large =8000 sq.ft. – I can have a cocktail party here or a brunch or….I am open to ideas/suggestions.
My heart goes out to you as well as all my blessings.
Christel
I will be making handmade executive pens from exotic hardwoods for your silent auction.
