2012 Stars and Angels Among Us is nearing
The 2011 Star, Robin Koster, receives a standing ovation.
What’s black and white and green all over?
The Stars and Angels Among Us Winter Benefit, set for March 10, 2012.
Don’t worry – this isn’t a black tie affair (although you won’t get turned away if you’re dressed to the nines). It’s a fun, casual, Irish-themed way to honor a Star and an Angel in the cancer community. A Star is someone who has courageously battled cancer and been an inspiration to others. An Angel is someone who has made an impact as a caregiver for someone battling cancer.
The 2011 benefit raised more than $190,000 to fund colon screenings for underserved Siouxland residents.
Plans for the 14th annual winter benefit include a silent and live auction, dinner and entertainment. Proceeds will help purchase new radiation technology to help our patients fight cancer like the Irish.
