Beverly Hills, CA – HER too, a nonprofit organization, is preparing to host its fifth annual Night of Hope Gala on October 30, 2023. This prestigious event will be held at the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel and is designed to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The Night of Hope Gala is focused on raising funds to support women in underserved communities who are battling breast cancer. Proceeds from the gala will directly benefit local breast cancer patients through HER too’s partnership with the Cecilia Gonzalez De La Hoya Cancer Center in East Los Angeles. This collaboration, established in October 2023, aims to provide direct financial assistance for treatments, therapies, and supportive care to those who need it most.
As part of HER too’s mission, the organization strives to ensure that no woman has to confront breast cancer alone or face financial difficulties during such a critical time. The gala will feature an experiential immersive experience, departing from the traditional auction format, with activities designed to engage attendees in unique ways. Guests will have the opportunity to participate in a balloon pop, a Chinese raffle, and a heads or tails game, which offer chances to win various exciting prizes.
Luxury prizes at the event will include courtside Lakers seats, Dodgers tickets, and a trip to Mexico, all of which aim to draw support for the cause. The evening will be hosted by Matthew Hoffman, and guests expected to attend include notable personalities such as Miss World America 2024 Athenna Crosby and Grammy winner Reggie Calloway.
The gala will also highlight the Profound Impact Award, which is set to honor individuals making significant contributions to breast cancer awareness and treatment. The inaugural award will be presented in 2024 to breast cancer surgeon Dr. Dennis R. Holmes. This year’s honoree, however, has yet to be announced.
HER too was founded by Leyna, who was inspired by her 12-year experience supporting her mother, a Marine Corps veteran, as she battled metastatic breast cancer. Leyna’s mother had complete medical coverage, which allowed her access to various treatment options. After her mother’s passing in 2019, Leyna established HER too with the intent of aiding other women who do not have similar benefits in their fight against breast cancer.
For those interested in supporting this cause, more information about the organization and details regarding the Night of Hope Gala can be found at hertoobreastcancer.org. The Beverly Hills Hotel is located at 9641 Sunset Blvd, offering a luxurious and supportive atmosphere for an event dedicated to raising awareness and funds for breast cancer patients.
