Nassau Candy and its founders, the Stier family, will be honored at the Sunrise Association’s 18th Annual Mildred & Samuel Levine Memorial Golf Classic. The company and its founders are being recognized for their longtime support of Sunrise Day Camp – Long Island, which is a free camp for children with cancer and their siblings.
“As a family-run business, family is at the heart of everything we do,” says Les Stier, founder and CEO of Nassau Candy. “That’s why Sunrise Day Camp – Long Island and their mission to help bring joy to the lives of children with cancer and their families is so important to us. We and Nassau Candy are honored to be recognized for our support of this wonderful organization.”
The Sunrise Association aims to bring joy to the lives of children with cancer and their siblings through its day camps, in-hospital programs and year-round programming. By offering day camps, children can receive the ongoing medical treatment they need while being with their families at night. All Sunrise Association programs are offered free of charge.
Nassau Candy and the Stier family are continuing to raise money for the Sunrise Association and are close to reaching their goal of $1.2 million for the organization.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support of the Stier family and Nassau Candy,” says Arnie Preminger, president and CEO of the Sunrise Association. “Their dedication and generosity have made a profound impact on the lives of countless children and their families. Being honored at the 18th Annual Mildred & Samuel Levine Memorial Golf Classic is a testament to their commitment to bringing joy and hope to children facing the challenges of cancer. They truly embody the spirit of Sunrise Day Camp.”
