The 5th Annual Taste of Hope Charlotte gala hosted by the American Cancer Society is already in the works and is scheduled for November 1st.
Last year, our success was due to our sponsors, donors, Executive Leadership Committee, GenNow Network CLT Chapter, volunteers and 400+ guests that attended the September 14th “Night In Paris” gala.
Our ‘foodie fundraiser’ galas feature an interactive cocktail reception with silent auction, jewelry pull, raffles and music followed by a three-course sit-down dinner presentation.
The live auction and mission appeal will certainly be heart-warming and lively. The Mission Paddle Raise will be restricted to general cancer research.
Thank you all who attended, donated and enjoyed the evening’s program. We look forward to seeing you again this year.
Please enjoy our 2024 gala recap video.
Welcome to the Annual Taste of Hope Charlotte Gala!
On behalf of our Executive Leadership Committee, GenNow Network Charlotte Chapter and staff of the American Cancer Society, we invite you to join us to raise awareness and resources in the fight against cancer.
How many of us know someone, or have a loved one who has been impacted by cancer? It’s true for all of us who pour our energies into this amazing Gala…and we know it’s true for most of you. We are proud to share this evening of fantastic food, new and treasured friendships, intentional purpose, deep meaning and valued connections.
This Gala is unique from the moment you walk in the door.
We begin with our “why”. We recognize Gala Leaders of Hope, whose moving journeys as cancer warriors and supporters cement the reason this event is so important to all of us in this community. When you leave, you know why this matters.
We also focus on fine food and “kick-your-shoes-off” fun! Our theme this year is centered in the Southwest…where a world of culinary and experience possibilities awaits!
Special thanks to all of our corporate partners, and our table sponsors, who have vision and purpose…and step up to make this inspirational night possible. Your commitment helps advance our mission to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Thank you,
