During this time of unprecedented fear and uncertainty brought on by COVID-19, frontline healthcare workers haven’t missed a beat. They continue to help patients conquer this virus, and their dedication and bravery during this pandemic is truly remarkable. As we continue to experience the unprecedented conditions in the U.S., Webair has now supplied 4,000 surgical masks, 3000 full face shields, and 600 meals to U.S. hospitals, in the Long Island area.

“Words cannot even begin to express the level gratitude we feel towards the dedicated healthcare workers fighting COVID-19 on the frontlines.” explains Webair President and CEO Michael Orza.

In addition to the mask, shield and meal donations that are being distributed through Be The Spark, a Long Island based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring positive change and enriching the lives closest to you. Webair continues to support our Hospitals, banks and other services by maintaining the behind the scenes infrastructure 24/7.

Be The Spark partners with The Danielle DeMarzo Foundation, Inc. and sponsors a fun hockey night out for children with disabilities. 

The Danielle DeMarzo Foundation, Inc. (“DDF”) was founded in July of 2000 by Frank and Jeannie DeMarzo of Coral Springs, Florida, and their two daughters Jennifer and Danielle. Through the personal experience of raising a child with a chromosomal abnormality, and subsequent growth related disorder, they can identify and share in the experiences of other affected individuals and their families.

Be the Spark presents this $5,000.00 check to Islip Arts Council to sponsor the Grucci firework display at the free philharmonic concert in the park on July 16th 2016 at Heckshire State park. This is done in honor of our Veterans. Please keep a look out for the invitation on our upcoming events page, we look forward to seeing you there!
