Singles who would like to mix and mingle, while at the same time support the OU’s extraordinary Yachad program for the developmentally disabled, are invited to a Spring Fling get-together on Thursday, June 17, from 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at the Carriage House in Manhattan.

The event will celebrate the twentieth birthday of Yachad, the flagship program of the Orthodox Union’s National Jewish Council for Disabilities (NJCD).

Carriage House is located at 149 East 38th Street, between Lexington and Third Avenues.

Spring Fling will serve as a fundraising benefit for Yachad, which provides unique social, educational and recreational programs for individuals with learning, developmental and physical disabilities.

“The event is an excellent opportunity for New York singles to mix and mingle in a non-bar setting,” declared Elaine Grossman, Director of Development for NJCD. “It will be a wonderful chance to socialize while at the same time celebrating Yachad’s twentieth birthday and raising money for an excellent cause.”

Admission is $54 dollars in advance and $72 dollars at the door and includes food / drink and one raffle ticket to win various sporting event tickets and other prizes. To be a sponsor, the cost is $540.
