On Stage for a Cure

Saturday, October 25, 2008
Shea’s Performing Arts Center

 

Thanks to generous community support, All Star Night—our white-tie gala on Saturday, October 25th—raised more than $250,000 to support innovative new cancer research at Roswell Park. More than 400 guests attended the sold-out affair at Shea's Performing Arts Center as Robin Roberts, co-anchor of ABC’s Good Morning America and a breast cancer survivor, received the Gilda Radner Courage Award.

Guests enjoyed a silent auction, cocktails and hors d'oeuvres in Shea's magnificent lobby, and experienced the grandeur of this historical theatre on stage for dinner. In addition to our award presentation to Ms. Roberts, two additional awards were given. Scott Bieler, President, West Herr Automotive Group, received the Katherine Ann Gioia Inspiration Award, and Norma Nowak, PhD, Director of the Microarray and Genomics Facility at Roswell Park, received the Thomas B. Tomasi, MD, PhD Achievement Award. Learn more about All Star Night 2008 here.
