The Gala of Hope is the Capital Region American Cancer Society’s premiere black-tie event that brings together 500+ of our leading business professionals and philanthropists to make an impact in the fight against cancer. This evening will feature a gourmet dinner by Mazzone Hospitality, live music from Soul Session, exciting live auctions and more! We will be celebrating Gala of Hope and the over $5.7 million that has been raised since inception in 2005. The Gala of Hope is much more than a Gala. It is a night to recognize and thank our community that continues to come together to save lives in a big way and we hope you can join us for it!
As the only organization combating cancer through advocacy, discovery, and patient support, the American Cancer Society has made significant contributions to the fight against cancer over the last 110 years. We advocate for lifesaving policy changes, promote healthy lifestyles to help prevent cancer, and provide information, answers, and support to people in every community who have been touched by cancer. We also research cancer and its causes to find more answers and better treatment.
Yet, there is still work to be done – which is why we are so glad you have joined us tonight! The American Cancer Society continues to work tirelessly to fund research and provide support for all types of cancer. And thanks to your generous support, we work to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Every cancer. Every life.
