Bergen County, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/18/2013 -- Most organizations that support and provide services to people with disabilities operate as non-profit organizations. Heartshare Human Services out of New York is one of those organizations. Heartshare has been serving individuals with developmental disabilities since 1914.

One of the ways the organization raises funds is through an annual spring gala and auction. Anthony Amado attended the 25th Annual event in March of 2013. It was at this event that Anthony Amado made a donation to support Heartshare Human Services.

Without donations from generous community members, such as Anthony Amado, the organization would not be able to offer the large array of services currently offered. Heartshare also offers services to families and children. Interested parties can contact Heartshare online at www.heartshare.org to donate just like Anthony Amado.
