These stories are a testament to resilience and the importance of collective support.

A Big Bottle for a Big Cause

At the dinner, we are pulling out a 1.5L bottle - a magnum for a cause that's as big as life.

Supporting a Cause Close to Our Hearts

Hosting this event holds deep personal significance for us. With multiple team members having been affected by cancer, we are fueled by a commitment to making a difference. This benefit dinner serves as a precursor to The Soiree, a major fundraising event with auction later this year, providing an extended opportunity for everyone to contribute in the way that works for them to this important cause.

What is The Soiree?

The Soiree is the American Cancer Society's premier fundraising event in Walla Walla. Our local community will join the American Cancer Society on Saturday, June 1st, at one of the most prestigious event venues—Marcus Whitman Hotel, helping to raise money for cancer patient services and cancer research.


The event will bring together our community's best chefs, delivering exceptional food, paired with award-winning wines from our local wineries to deliver a one-of-a-kind experience. In addition, there will also be a great silent and live auction items to meet a variety of interests.


This fundraising event will help the American Cancer Society continue to fund life-saving research as well as free programs and services for cancer patients and their families in Washington State and across the nation.

More Opportunities to Participate

Every contribution, big or small, plays a crucial role in advancing cancer research and bringing us closer to a cure. If you can't join us for the Conquering Cancer Benefit Dinner, attend The Soiree at the Marcus Whitman Hotel on Saturday, June 1, 2024. Can't attend either? You can register to participate in The Soiree's online auction!

 

Join us for an evening of unity, hope, and generosity. Let's raise a glass, share a meal, and fight cancer. Your presence and support will make a difference--one that ripples through the lives of those affected by this formidable adversary. Together, we can uncork hope and toast a future free from the shadows of cancer.
