Moonlight & Miracles Gala
Five years ago we began a journey together. A journey of hope that would help change the lives of countless individuals and families fighting cancer. Along the way, we celebrated our victories and accomplishments, as countless volunteers and donors answered the call – but there were also tears. Tears shed as we learned of the struggles that so many still face each and every day. It is in their struggles that we gain the strength to continue our journey, and fight for those who never give up and never surrender.
Today, we invite you to join us once more as we celebrate the 2017 Moonlight & Miracles Gala and continue on our journey of hope. To purchase tickets, please click here.
