For the third consecutive year, Novartis Pharmaceuticals is sponsoring the Community Outreach program for the 2009 NJN Benefit Celebration. The company’s generous support will make it possible for more than 150 individuals, who work at New Jersey’s Blood Banks and provide an important service to the state, to enjoy the concert at the State Theatre. NJN shares Novartis Pharmaceuticals’ commitment to provide programs and services that improve the quality of life for the people of New Jersey. Tricia R. Russo, Esq., Director, State Government Affairs, for Novartis Pharmaceuticals, is spearheading this Community Outreach effort.
