The Breast Cancer Research Foundation of Alabama (BCRFA) is excited to announce that our 13th annual Pink Palace Casino Night raised $112,790 to fund local, lifesaving research across the state.
Nearly 300 guests joined us for an elegant evening of food, music, and Vegas-style fun on Saturday, April 23, at Soiree Event Galley in Hoover. Presented by the O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center at UAB, Renasant Bank, and Tameron Honda and Hyundai, the event is one of our largest fundraisers with all proceeds invested in innovative breast cancer research at Alabama institutes, including Birmingham’s O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center, CerFlux, and Southern Research.
“The Breast Cancer Research Foundation of Alabama is funding innovation in breast cancer research from Huntsville to Mobile,” said Beth Bradner Davis, Executive Director. “With more than 4,200 Alabama women receiving a breast cancer diagnosis this year alone, the BCRFA is meeting a critical need by accelerating science towards a cure.”
Thanks to the efforts of the event committee, board of directors, generous sponsors, and dedicated community members, this year the event raised the highest amount ever!
Thank you to our presenting sponsors!
