Winship's Gala Raises $600,000 for Cancer Research
On April 14th, 400 guests attended the Winship Gala 2012 at the Piedmont Driving Club — an elegant evening of dinner, dancing, and celebrating our achievements in the fight against cancer. With HOPE as its theme, this signature event, organized by our Friends of Winship, sold out at the patron level and raised more than $600,000 to support cancer research at Winship. Gala co-chairs and Friends founding members Ann Hastings and Leslie Wierman and their dedicated committee are to be commended for this delightful event, which recognized Mary and John F. Brock, CEO of Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc., as Honorary Chairs. We extend our thanks to everyone who helped make Winship Gala 2012 a tremendous success!
