Evening At Blue Point Grill Raises Over $12K for YWCA Princeton's Breast Cancer Center

PRINCETON, NJ – JM Group's annual Pink Pearl Night in February raised $12,758 for YWCA Princeton's Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC). The fundraising event, held at Blue Point Grill in Princeton, brought together local businesses and community members for an evening dedicated to breast cancer awareness and support.

The evening featured an expertly crafted eight-course meal prepared by Blue Point Grill's culinary team, showcasing fresh seafood from Nassau Street Seafood, another JM Group establishment. Guests savored gourmet dishes, including butter-poached Maine lobster, pesto-crusted Mahi Mahi, and Seared Chilean Sea Bass Provencal with mussels, clams, and crab.

The event combined fine dining with advocacy, featuring speeches from JM Group Vice President Jess Morrison, YWCA Princeton's Breast Cancer Resource Center Director Melissa White-McMahon, and personal stories from breast cancer survivors that moved attendees throughout the evening.

"We are deeply grateful to the JM Group, the staff, sponsors and our incredible community for their generous support and partnership in making this year's Pink Pearl Night a success," said Rose Wong, YWCA Chief Executive Officer. "The funds raised directly support our Breast Cancer Resource Center, ensuring that we can continue to provide free programs and services to those facing breast cancer."

Melissa McMahon, Director of YWCA Princeton's Breast Cancer Resource Center, said, "Pink Pearl Night serves as a symbol of hope for us at the BCRC. It has also become a night that gives us a reason to pause and reflect on the impact that breast cancer has within our local community while enjoying the amazing food provided by the JM Group."

Multiple local organizations sponsored the event, including CBIZ, Fulton Bank, NJM Insurance Group, Callaway Henderson Sotheby's, The Yedlin Family, The Ridings Family, Steve Weiner SPA, Indoor Air Technologies, The Bent Spoon, Lennox Law Firm, Costanza Construction, The Nassau Inn, Sumo Sushi, and all JM Group Restaurants.
