On Friday, May 9, 2025, we stepped into the Land of Oz together—and our supporters help, we discovered just how powerful courage, heart, and hope can truly be. Thanks to their incredible generosity and support, our Night of Wine and Roses Gala raised an astounding $570,000 and counting to advance our mission to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. Their compassion and commitment are helping us fund lifesaving research as well as program and services like our Hope Lodge Communities to those navigating their cancer journey.
From the Emerald City decor to the golden generosity shining through the evening, it was a night to remember—and more importantly, a night that will have a lasting impact. We’re reminded that the most powerful magic isn’t found in emerald cities or ruby slippers—it’s found in the kindness of those willing to give.
On behalf of everyone at the American Cancer Society, and the many lives you are helping to touch, thank you for following the yellow brick road with us.
