The Golden Gala is the culmination of September's Gold Ribbon Campaign
held in recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness month. It is our sole fundraising event of the year, and the best way to secure tickets is with an event sponsorship or qualifying underwriting level. Last year's event sold out in two weeks!
