We are proud to announce the 13th annual Friends of Joey Renda Texas Hold’ Em Poker Tournament fundraising event will be held on Saturday, October 19, 2024 at

The TOURNAMENT WILL BEGIN PROMPTLY AT 7 PM, so please plan to arrive by 6 pm to allow enough time for registration and the dinner buffet.

As you may already know, I was diagnosed with MS in 2001 and have been a patient of the Tisch MS Research Center of NY for over 19 years.  As a private, not-for-profit research entity, the Tisch MSRCNY dedicates its 80,000 sq. ft. facility exclusively into researching the cause, treatment, and cure of Multiple Sclerosis.

I am excited to announce that in June and September of 2024, I received my first two stem cell treatments of the year, with a third treatment scheduled for November. These treatments contain double the amount of stem cells compared to previous treatments from several years ago. This is great news! We thank all of you for your continued support and prayers!

Please see the attached flyer and let us know if you will join us in helping raise money for the doctors who are personally treating me so we can all overcome this debilitating, terrible disease.  If you plan on attending, as a favor we ask that you sign up as early as possible so we can get an accurate head count for dealers, ordering the dinner buffet and pizza.

Attendees can either sign up online at www.friendsofjoeyrenda.com or mail their checks, payable to:   Friends of Joey Renda.

If you can’t attend the event but would like to donate to our charity, we would really appreciate your donation.  Please mail donation checks to:  

Thank you in advance for your support and participation!  We look forward to seeing you soon!
