about the event
The Coaches vs. Cancer BasketBall brings together business, health care, and philanthropic leaders for a night to make a difference in the fight against cancer and fund life saving research, patient services and programs right here in Philadelphia.
More than 18 million cancer survivors are alive today, thanks in part to the American Cancer Society. We are the only organization working to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Our April 15th BasketBall honored Jay & Patty Wright. Oh what a night- some of our favorite memories from our 19th Annual Gala.
