The Villages Chapter of Kids Beating Cancer is a group of women with the desire to bring hope and make a difference in the lives of children diagnosed with cancer that have connected with the Orlando based Kids Beating Cancer charity organization to start a chapter in The Villages. Each with their own personal reason for dedicating their time and talents to this organization, these women set their sights on creating fun, exciting and memorable events to raise funds for this worthy cause. The first event, “Get on Board with Kids Beating Cancer” was a cruise-themed fashion show held on November 19th at the Savannah Center that raised more than $145,000 for Kids Beating Cancer! Guests experienced a luncheon while enjoying silent and live auctions, a cruise wear Fashion Show and shopping from a selection of vendors, while raising the critically needed funds to bring the discoveries for tomorrow’s cures while saving children’s lives.
Through your support of this chapter, we will not just treat but create cures for children through innovative research that will be at the forefront of treatments anywhere in the world.
