Norman "Ironman" Bluth of McBreen & Kopko, Attorneys at Law and Port Washington resident has been selected to be one of the boxers for the 4th Annual Long Island Fight for Charity which will be held Oct. 23 at the Long Island Hilton in Melville. This action-packed event is one of the Island's leading charity fundraising and networking events. The event is expected to have an attendance of more than 1,200 people and to raise over $150,000 for local charities.

More than 20 of Long Island's brightest and toughest business professionals will go head to head in the ring. The card for the evening will include more than 10 bouts that pit local business professionals against each other for charity.

One of the many anticipated bouts will include Norman "Ironman" Bluth, partner at McBreen & Kopko, Attorneys at Law. "I'm ready for action. Members of the Long Island business community are very generous. I am pleased to help raise funds for local charities by putting myself in the ring," says Norman.

"When we started the Fight for Charity four years ago, we never imagined how popular it would become. However, if it were not for all the individuals who volunteer to box and help us put this event together, it would never have emerged as one of the Island's premier charity networking events that it is today," said Jeff Cohen, Long Island Fight for Charity co-founder.

Tickets for the event are currently available on-line. Ringside seats are $250, premium seats are $125, and both include admission to a pre-event special networking and cocktail reception. The event starts at 6 p.m. and will provide food and beverages from a variety of leading Long Island businesses.

Proceeds from the event will go to the Long Island Community Chest, which will distribute the funds to local charities including the Genesis School, Christa House, Scleroderma Foundation, Pet Peeves, Long Island Works Coalition, and Family Residences and Essential Enterprises, Inc.
