If you’re a developer in the New York City area, please check out Devs For Wendy, benefitting Wendy Friedlander and her family…

Wendy is a 30 year old software agilista from Long Island. She's a strong WPF developer and a firm believer in the agile method of development including pair programming and TDD. Wendy is wife and mother of a beautiful girl named Kaylee who will be 2 in August.

In August of 2009 Wendy learned that she had a rare and agressive pediatric cancer called aveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Her treatment consists of high dose chemotherapy and radiation. She has had to leave her job, and her husband has been forced into part time work in order to care for their daughter.

Please join us at 7pm on July 7th 2010 for a dinner benefiting Wendy brought to you by the NYC development community.
