Kimberly Salshutz of Ardsley came up with an interesting idea - a fundraiser to help those who have juvenile diabetes. She prepared the following you tube PSA. Kimberly and her family moved to Ardsley from NYC 5 years ago. Soon after their move their daughter Sophia was diagnosed with type I diabetes. She and her family are pioneering a cure ever since. She is hosting along with the Juvenile Diabetes research foundation a one time fundraiser open to everyone. The live band (BAD ART) is composed of 5 Ardsley dad's and its hosted at LIFE the PLACE to BE. kssalshutz@gmail.com -for more info!
