Mariposa-A Cocktail Party Fundraiser,

Loft Life Venue, Newark, New Jersey, United States Loft Life Venue, Newark, New Jersey, United States

  • About the event

    The Fibromyalgia Care Society hosts an annual Cocktail Party Fundraiser-Mariposa.  The event not only serves to celebrate the important work we are doing but also to honor individuals who have been part of our work and more specifically, those who have had an impact on the broader fibromyalgia community. We have an exciting evening planned and are grateful to have support from our community partners in helping to make this event a success. 

    Why should you sponsor?

    The mission of the Fibromyalgia Care Society of America (FCSA) is to provide education, care, and supportive services to individuals living with fibromyalgia, their families, and the community at large. FCSA will also work to educate medical providers on the appropriate diagnostic, care, and treatment of those living with this condition.

    Founded in 2015, the Fibromyalgia Care Society of America (FCSA) is devoted to revolutionizing how fibromyalgia is cared for in this country by introducing a comprehensive holistic approach to care, family supports, and support groups. The organization was founded by Mildred Velez, who has been living with fibromyalgia since 2007, in response to the lack of direct services for those living with fibromyalgia and to the dearth of dedicated medical care and support. Mildred, along with a dedicated board of trustees, has developed a concise and direct approach to helping those living with fibromyalgia and their families. Fibromyalgia affects 4-12 million people nationwide, it affects people of all ages, demographics, and socioeconomic statuses.  By supporting our event, you are joining a movement to revolutionize fibromyalgia care across the country. 


    Mildred Velez

    I am the Founder and President of the Fibromyalgia Care Society of America, Inc. (FCSA)  I have been in the social service field for  25+ years and am a staunch supporter of advancing social justice causes.  I strongly believe that unity is the key to overcoming the barriers that many underserved communities face and that by working together we can all become better people and leave the world better than we found it in. In 2015, with the help of a small group of determined people we launched the FCSA, and with the support of donors, partners and sponsors we have been able to bring care and understanding to a community that often feels alone and invisible.  We do not currently or in the past received funding from any funder, local, state, or federal.  The work we do is a testament to my beliefs-We are stronger together!
