Supporting and empowering breast cancer survivors is our mission. It is an exciting time for HERS Breast Cancer Foundation. We are celebrating our 20th Anniversary in 2018 and looking forward to a year full of growth in our organization, compassionate service to survivors, and outreach in our communities.
The People with Purpose event has been a beautiful event for the past 8 years. Our ninth annual event is again called People with Purpose – A Pink Tie Gala. We would like to repeat our past successes in 2018, so we are aiming to raise $100,000 with this fun and inspiring event.
The event will take place on Saturday, April 21st 2018 at Castlewood Country Club, in Pleasanton, from 6:00 pm- 10:00 pm. The event, hosted by Heather Holmes, KTVU News Anchor, will consist of a cocktail hour, a wonderful 3-course dinner with wine, an award presentation, and dancing. We’ll also have games, silent auction tables, an entertaining live auction, and more! Please join us for this special night of celebrating breast cancer survivors and all who support them, including our honorees.
The People with Purpose benefit event will honor four individuals (or organizations) who have shown they have what it takes to make a difference in the lives of women affected by this terrible disease. The awards reflect the mission of HERS Breast Cancer Foundation to support Bay Area women healing from breast cancer by providing them with post-surgical garments and support regardless of their financial status. The Hope, Empowerment, Renewal and Support awards (HERS) are based on each honoree’s contributions to bringing survivors hopefor the future, empowering their spirit,renewing their sense of well-being, and supporting their journey.
