at finding a cure and effectively treating and raising
awareness of food allergies.

Guests of Honor were Dr. Hugh Sampson and Dr. Xiu-Min
Li from The Elliot & Roslyn Jaffe Food
Allergy Institute, Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Lori
Stokes, anchor, WABC-TV, was the Mistress
of Ceremonies.
The Food Allergy Initiative is a national,
non-profit organization dedicated to finding a cure for
life-threatening food allergies. Through research and
clinical activities, FAI's goal
is to develop a cure by 2010. FAI supports
public policy initiatives to create safer environments
for those afflicted with food allergies. They have also
created educational programs for schools, health and
child care workers and members of the food service and
hospitality industries to increase awareness about food
allergies.
