NEWARK, Del., June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Northrop Realty is thrilled to announce that the fundraising event Flame and Fortune held on April 29, 2024 co-hosted with the Allison Stine Team of Northrop Realty, resulted in a generous donation of $2,000 to the Aetna Hook, Hose and Ladder Co, as well as 150 pounds of food for the Food Bank of Delaware. The event was held at The Deer Park Tavern in Newark, DE, who also made a generous donation to Aetna.

The $2,000 raised by Flame and Fortune will directly support the Aetna Hose, Hook and Ladder Co in their mission to acquire essential equipment, provide training, and maintain operational efficiency. In recognition of the invaluable service rendered by the brave men and women who serve in the firefighting and emergency response sectors, the Northrop Realty Newark Office and members of the community banded together to host a unique live event with games, guest bartenders, and a wing eating competition.

Chef Robbie Jester, the illustrious winner of Beat Bobby Flay, Guy's Grocery Games, and Pressure Cooker, and local Real Estate Attorney Jenna Stayton faced off in a challenge to try hot wings with sauces that increased in intensity on the Scoville scale. Both challengers finished the competition, only reaching for the milk after the 10th and final wing.
