Hosted by Retired Old Dominion University Basketball Coach, Jeff Jones, the Coaches vs. Cancer Legends Gala will bring together hundreds of sports enthusiasts, as well as business and philanthropic leaders in the Hampton Roads, to help the American Cancer Society in the fight against cancer!
We hope you will join our team for an evening complete with a cocktail hour, dinner, open bar, silent auction and celebrity basketball coaches featuring Roy Williams, Jim Boeheim, Tubby Smith, Bob Huggins, Gary Williams, Fran Dunphy, and Nancy Lieberman.
As the only organization combating cancer through advocacy, discovery, and patient support, the American Cancer Society has made significant contributions to the fight against cancer over the last 110 years. We advocate for lifesaving policy changes, promote healthy lifestyles to help prevent cancer, and provide information, answers, and support to people in every community who have been touched by cancer. We also research cancer and its causes to find more answers and better treatment.
Yet, there is still work to be done – which is why we are so glad you have joined us tonight! The American Cancer Society continues to work tirelessly to fund research and provide support for all types of cancer. And thanks to your generous support, we work to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Every cancer. Every life.
