This will be the second time in as many years that Taste of Crete will be a sponsor, donating traditional Greek Evangelical cookies. HealthCorps is a non-profit foundation started and run by Mehmet Oz, the host of the acclaimed Dr. Oz television show. HealthCorps currently serves over 41 schools in eleven states, providing lessons, activities, and experiences which integrate mental, physical, and nutritional health education for tens of thousands of students.
Held at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in Manhattan, the Annual Garden Gala is HealthCorps' largest fundraising event. Over 750 Guests will be in attendance. In the past, celebrities, politicians, philanthropists, and business leaders such as Chancellor of New York City Schools Joel Klein, Quincy Jones, Wyclef Jean, and Miss Universe have attended the event. This year, the event will be honoring Tibor Hollo of Florida East Coast Realty, Deb and Hugh Jackman, and Russell Simmons of Rush Communications.

Taste of Crete's Evangelia cookies are vegan, dairy-free, and feature Taste of Crete's exclusive Extra Virgin Olive Oil. These cookies are an extremely healthy option for any event.
