The Remembering Jamie Foundation is set to host its 24th Annual Italian Dinner Night on Saturday, Feb. 24, from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Elks Lodge in Egg Harbor Township. This cherished event honors the memory of Jamie Crescenzo, who tragically passed away in a car accident on Feb. 18, 2000, at the age of 20.

A graduate of Egg Harbor Township High School and a full-time student at Atlantic Cape Community College, Jamie’s life was cut short on her way to work during severe weather conditions. In the wake of this tragedy, Jamie’s parents, Jim and Margaret Crescenzo, established the Remembering Jamie Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, to celebrate Jamie’s life and the values she held dear: family, friends, community, and education.
