The 8th Annual Wings To Cure Gala
Join us this November to help raise funds in support of Dr. Platanias and his incredible team of researchers, scientists, and oncologists at the Robert H. Lurie’s Comprehensive Cancer Research Center at Northwestern University
What has transpired over the years have been the most special and meaningful events that HCRF creates in order to draw in generous individuals that have an absolute impact on funding for cancer research. Each event in itself tells a story of cancer patients and cancer survivors opening up to hundreds of guests about their triumphs and struggles with this disease that we hope will bring light to and touch all who witness hearing these stories.
We could not do the work we do for cancer researchers and patients without the help of generous supporters like you. We hope you will join in HCRF's mission & legacy.
