On October 25, 2014, members and supporters of the Hudson Valley Oil & Energy Council (HVOEC) will once again join together for the organization’s Annual Person of the Year Dinner Dance. Historically, the Dinner Dance has been the HVOEC’s biggest fundraising event, and this year is expected to be bigger than ever thanks to their unique selection of honorees. In celebration of the Annual Dinner Dance’s 25th anniversary, instead of choosing one ‘Person of the Year,” the HVOEC will honor the work of six local charities ‘ one for each county the association represents ‘ and present each one with a donation of $2,000.00.

‘A strong desire to serve is a common value held by all members of the Hudson Valley Oil & Energy Council,” says HVOEC former Vice President Eli Van Etten. ‘As the 25th Annual HVOEC Person of the Year Dinner Dance approaches, the council has decided to give back to the local charities in the communities that support us with their business and loyalty.”

The charities and nonprofit organizations to be awarded include:

·         Sullivan County Federation for the Homeless, which operates the only soup kitchen in Sullivan County;

·         Arc of Putnam County, which serves over 600 children and adults with disabilities;
