ENGLISHTOWN - People who have never met Stephanie Bjorn of Alabama will rally to help her on Sunday night.

Andy Maietta, whose family owns Ristorante Maietta on Tennent Avenue (Route 522) in Englishtown, will host a benefit dinner from 5-8 p.m. April 19 to benefit Stephanie, 13, who is waging a battle against Hodgkin's disease.

The youngster, who will celebrate her 14th birthday in May, is in her fourth round of chemotherapy and faces the prospect of additional chemotherapy and radiation treatments, Maietta said.

Maietta knows Stephanie through her stepfather, Scott Bjorn. The two men met in 2006 when both became members of the online General Motors Camaro project. The new Camaro is expected to make its debut next month.

"Scott is a very good guy and when he told us about Stephanie, I wanted to do something," Maietta said. "We will have a dinner, a silent auction and a caricature artist at our restaurant on April 19."

Proceeds of the dinner will help Stephanie's family pay for her medical expenses which are not covered by their insurance.

Guests will pay $50 for a dinner that will include a main course, salad and soda or water. Appetizers will be an additional cost. Maietta said $25 of every dinner will go to the Bjorn family. All of the proceeds from the silent auction and the caricature artist will go the family, he said. Reservations are required and must be made by April 17. Call 732-446-7431 to make reservations or for more information.

Maietta, who resides in Manalapan, said his family has owned the restaurant, formerly known as People's, for 30 years.
