Hunterdon Health Foundation Hosts their 2025 Crystal Evening Honoring Pro-Activity

Hunterdon Health Foundation’s annual Crystal Evening brought hundreds of guests together at SteelStacks in Bethlehem, PA, for a night of celebration, philanthropy, and community spirit.

This year, the Spirit of Hunterdon Award was presented to Pro-Activity, a human achievement company whose work in prevention, wellness, and movement has transformed lives across the region. Their longstanding partnership with Hunterdon Health through the Main Street Half Marathon & 4-Mile Walk has inspired healthier living and strengthened support for the Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center.

Guests were especially touched by the story of Bob and Barbara, longtime patients of Hunterdon Family Medicine at Phillips-Barber. Their video highlighted the trust, compassion, and quality care that patients find at Hunterdon Health, and reminded the audience of the impact philanthropy makes possible every day.

The evening raised more than $200,000 for programs and services throughout Hunterdon Health, ensuring patients and families have access to advanced, compassionate care close to home. Guests celebrated on the dance floor with The Nerds and enjoyed a crowd favorite—pretzels on parade, with trays of soft pretzels lighting up the room.

The Foundation extends its deepest gratitude to the event’s sponsors, whose generosity helped make the night possible and continues to strengthen the future of healthcare in the region.
