Ticket Giveaway: Harvesting Hope

The third annual American Cancer Society Harvesting Hope gala will be held in the Cleveland Botanical Garden on Monday, Monday, September 26, 2016.

The celebration of good taste will begin at 5:30 P.M. with a VIP Reception where guests will mingle with celebrity chefs and learn more about the Hope Lodge. Dinner will begin at 6:30 P.M. with chef stations and tastings offered from Brick and Barrel Brewery and Tito's Handmade Vodka followed by a live auction, silent auction, live music and a special Cleveland Hope Lodge guest speaker and mission moment.
This event is featuring some of my local favorites, like Jeff Jarrett of US Foods, Ben Bebenroth of Spice, Adam Bostwick and Brian Okin of Cork & Cleaver and Graffiti, and Wendy Thompson of A Cookie and A Cupcake (my favorite cupcakes in town!). All serving dishes in the stunning setting of the Botanical Gardens.

All funds raised at Harvesting Hope will benefit the lifesaving mission of the American Cancer Society, and support the American Cancer Society Joseph S. and Jeannette M. Silber Hope Lodge community in Cleveland. For more than a 100 years, The American Cancer Society has been leading the fight to end cancer. They have helped usher in an era where more people survive cancer than ever before. By translating research findings into action, they've seen a 20% decline in US cancer death rates since the early 1990s. Almost everyone has been touched by cancer in their lives, and it's an important fight.

The American Cancer Society Hope Lodge program provides free overnight lodging to cancer patients and their caregivers who have to travel away from home for treatment. Not having to worry about where to stay or how to pay for it allows patients to focus on the most important thing: getting well.  Since opening its doors in 1995, the American Cancer Society Joseph S. and Jeannette M. Silber Hope Lodge community in Cleveland has provided more than 180,000 nights of free lodging to more than 5,600 patients and their caregivers.

Individual Tickets to Harvesting Hope are $150, and VIP are $200. You can also get together a group of friends and save money by purchasing the Group of 8 pack for $1,000 ($1,250 for VIP). Tickets can be purchased online here. Or, you can win two Individual Tickets here. Use the form below for multiple ways to enter the random giveaway. A winner will be announced on Friday.

Eight years ago, I lost my mom to ovarian cancer, 6 months to the day before my son was born. They never got to meet each other. This is for such a great cause, and I would love the opportunity to attend.

What a great event supporting such an important cause! I've lost several family members to cancer. I actually know one of the chefs participating as well.
