John Staluppi Grateful for NY Auto Giant Executives’ Efforts Supporting National Kidney Registry

John Staluppi was delighted to hear the news about the awarding of two of the company’s philanthropists, NY Auto Giant executives John Pickett and Michael Brown. The honor is to be given in recognition of their efforts in sponsoring the the National Kidney Registry (or NKR)

The NKR was chosen as one of the many charities supported by John Staluppi and his NY Auto Giant dealerships. Knowing that the purpose of the foundation is to unite kidney transplant donors to those in need, the two never hesitated to sponsor a project that will benefit the victims of kidney disease. Much to their surprise, they were able to collect a hundred thousand dollars from the fundraising gala recently held.

What Inspired them to Join?

The purpose of the NKR was one of the driving forces for Mr. Pickett and Mr. Brown’s active participation in the foundation’s endeavors. They knew that fundraising activities such as that of the NKR will be of great help in building quality lives for those afflicted with kidney failure. This support of this organization will also serve to assist the families of these affected individuals.

John Staluppi and his employees were moved by the inspiring story of Jacquelyn Maher-Brucia, an NY Auto Giant employee as well. Jacquelyn was once a supporter of the organization and soon found out she would soon need a kidney.

These efforts resulted to a great achievement not only for the two but for their teacher, John Staluppi as well as the rest of the NY Auto Giant team. For this reason, the company hosted a three-hour gala event on November 17 at West Islip’s La Grange Inn. The event also served to honor the philanthropist efforts of Mr. Pickett and Mr. Brown.

John Staluppi and NY Auto Giant Executives Honored at Gala for National Kidney Registry

John Staluppi is a dedicated leader in giving back to the community so it’s only natural that desire would extend to his employees as well. Knowing that this is a noble purpose, NY Auto Giant Executives John Pickett and Michael Brown pushed efforts to make sure they can be of help to charitable organizations.

One of the latest endeavors John Staluppi and his team have entered into promoted the needs of the National Kidney Registry (NKR) and the people that will benefit from the foundation. The efforts paid off after the two were honored in a gala spearheaded by the said organization last November 17.

The Purpose of This Charitable Organization

The NKR offers assistance to those who are in need of kidney transplants. What they do is provide one international registry to help match kidney donors with recipients, and help make sure that those with kidney failure problems will continue living quality lives. The lives of kidney recipients are changed for the better, and those of the contributors become a guiding light for others to donate as well.

How Did Pickett and Brown Help the NKR?

The desire to give back to the community – this is one of the legacies John Staluppi passed on to people in his organizations—is a very honorable notion. NY Auto Giant dealerships hosted a fundraising event for the benefit of the NKR. Inspired by the difficulty faced by one of their dedicated employees, Jackie-Maher Burcia, the two participated in the NKR without any second thoughts.

Recognizing the fact that thousands upon thousands of individuals have been adversely affected by the plight, Mr. Pickett and Mr. Brown were able to attract more people to help serve the purpose of the NKR, and for their efforts, they were honored at the Second Annual Gala Reception and Dinner for the benefit of the National Kidney Registry Gala.

The Award

The NY Auto Giant executives were presented with plaques by the NKR’s Founder and President Garet Hill. The plaques were inscribed with inspiring words describing how these businessmen in the auto dealership business became sunshine to the lives of others.

They have touched the lives of kidney failure victims and their families. With that, there is no question that Mr. Pickett and Mr. Brown deserved the honor. As they have said while accepting their respective awards, this is something they have learned from their mentor, John Staluppi.

John Staluppi and Atlantic Auto Group Host Gala Benefit for National Kidney Registry, a Fundraising Success and Honor

John Staluppi and two of his Atlantic Auto Group executives were honored for their contributions to the National Kidney Registry and other charitable work during a gala event so well attended it became standing room only.

LONG ISLAND, N.Y. – John Staluppi and his company Atlantic Auto Group were recognized Wednesday, Nov. 17, at the Second Annual Gala Reception Dinner for the benefit of the National Kidney Registry (NKR) for not only supporting the organization that matches donors with those needing kidney transplants, but also for their charitable contributions to the community at large.

The proceeds from the benefit totaled more than $100,000 and will directly benefit the National Kidney Registry.

John Pickett and Michael Brown, Atlantic Auto Group Chief Operating Officer and Vice President, respectively, were honored for their altruistic efforts and their instrumental roles in generating widespread recognition of the NKR’s and raising funds for the organization.

Anthony Pancella III, President of Security Professionals, introduced both gentlemen by saying, “John Pickett and Michael Brown are principled businessmen at the top of their game, part of an auto group that is one of the top 10 in the nation and dedicated family men.” Mr. Pancella added that their efforts coupled with the unbelievable generosity of Atlantic Auto Group owner John Staluppi and his family prove that “big business can have a strong heart.”

During their speeches Mr. Brown and Mr. Pickett thanked their mentor John Staluppi and everyone attending the event, approximately 600 guests total. Mr. Brown explained how Atlantic Auto Group came to be involved with NKR.

“We wanted to give back and do something for the community and we chose this charity because we thought it was a good organization to support,” Mr. Brown said. “We punched that idea into overdrive when one of our Atlantic Auto Group family members was in need.” Jackie Maher-Brucia, one of Atlantic Auto Group’s hardest working employees according to many who made kind remarks on her behalf during their speeches, has been supporting the NKR and is now personally in need of a kidney transplant.

Mr. Brown added, “Not only is it an honor to work with the National Kidney Registry, but this is our passion to create as much recognition and support for this organization in Jackie’s honor.”

Mr. Pickett added to Mr. Brown’s remarks by saying, “Knowing how many people are affected by kidney disease and how they and their families must deal with its effects on a daily basis is inspiration to us both; it’s reason enough why we continue to work with the National Kidney Registry.”

Founder and President of the National Kidney Registry, Garet Hill, presented Mr. Pickett and Mr. Brown with plaques inscribed with the words, “Those who bring sunshine to others cannot keep it from themselves.”

In addition to its support of the NKR, Atlantic Auto Group was also recognized for its support of the following organizations: Huntington Hospital, Breast Cancer Help, Clarke Gillies Foundation, American Cancer Society, Pilot Club, Telecare, Make A Wish, Big Brothers & Big Sisters, Jimmy Fund/Hope on Wheels, Wafer Family Foundation, Deborah Hospital Foundation, Babylon Lions, Boy & Girl Scouts of America, Rose Brucia Foundation to Prevent Childhood Abduction, Nassau & Suffolk Police Fraternal Organizations and the Town of Babylon Summer Recreation Program.

Many dignitaries were also present at the gala to show their support for Mr. Pickett, Mr. Brown and Atlantic Auto Group. They included: NYS Senate Republican Leader Dean Skelos; NYS Senator Owen H. Johnson; Suffolk County Treasurer Angie Carpenter; Monsignor James Vlaun; Islip Supervisor Phil Nolan; Chairman of the Babylon Town Democratic Committee Robert Strickoff; Chairman of the Suffolk County Republican Committee John Jay LaValle; Judge Joseph A. Santorelli; Karin Hollander of the Make A Wish Foundation; Dave O’Brien of Hyundai Motor America and Jimmy Fund/Hope on Wheels; and Matthew Barbis of the Rose Brucia Foundation to Prevent Childhood Abduction.
