More than 200 community leaders and friends of St. Luke’s Allentown Campus gathered at The Americus Hotel in downtown Allentown recently for the network’s 22nd annual Dinner by Starlight event.

It was a record year, with nearly $350,000 raised to outfit a second OB operating room within St. Luke’s Allentown’s new Women & Babies Pavilion, expected to open February 2024. The fundraising event provides a special opportunity to recognize members of the Allentown community who make a difference through their gifts of time, talent and treasure.

Lauren Sokolski, regional director of marketing and public relations for St. Luke’s, generated excitement as the evening’s emcee and recognized the St. Luke’s Allentown Women & Babies team as this year’s Honorary Star. Donations to support the St. Luke’s Allentown Women & Babies Pavilion will be accepted through Dec. 31 at www.sluhn.org/dinnerbystarlight, where you will find “additional donation” at the bottom of the page.
