Healthcare Leader To Be Honored At Tigger Stavola Foundation Event

SHREWSBURY, NJ — RWJBarnabas Health Executive Vice President Bill Arnold will be honored at the Tigger Stavola Foundation’s annual Infinity Event.

Based in Red Bank, the Tigger Stavola Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting addiction, spreading awareness and saving lives through drug prevention and education.

The foundation was established in 2013 after the Stavola family lost their son, Tigger, to an accidental overdose.

The foundation’s Infinity Event will mark its 11-year anniversary of supporting families impacted by addiction, and take place on Oct. 17 at the Shadowbrook at Shrewsbury.

Arnold will be honored at the event for his career achievements and his commitment to the foundation’s mission.

“It has been my privilege to work alongside the Stavola family for nearly a decade and to support their mission to serve Tigger’s memory through advocacy and support for individuals who are struggling with addiction,” Arnold said. “It is deeply meaningful to be this year’s honoree at the 2024 Infinity Event.”

In addition to serving as the executive vice president for RWJBarnabas Health, Arnold is also the president of RWJBarnabas Health’s Southern Region and the CEO of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital.

“The Tigger Stavola Foundation is thrilled to honor Bill not only for his career achievements and impactful work, but also for his commitment to our mission since day one,” Tigger Stavola’s mother and the founding director of the Tigger Stavola Foundation, Lisa Stavola, said. “We can’t wait to show our gratitude to Bill for helping us lead this fight against substance use disorder for over a decade.”

At the Infinity Event, officials said guests will be able to enjoy a cocktail hour, dinner and entertainment featuring a performance by Michael Martocci and his 20-piece orchestra playing Sinatra classics.

The event is black-tie optional, and will also include a silent and live auction to raise money for the Foundation’s drug prevention education programming for youth across New Jersey.
