SUMMARY:Prevent Cancer Foundation 30th Annual Gala
DESCRIPTION:On September 25\, the Prevent Cancer Foundation will hold its 30th Annual Gala to support cancer prevention and early detection programs. Over the last three decades\, funding from this Gala has led to breakthroughs in cancer research and innovative technologies\, including the development of new screening methods and early detection tools that have significantly improved patient outcomes. The Gala has also funded public education campaigns that have educated millions about the importance of cancer prevention and early detection.  \nThe 2024 Gala event will pay tribute to the United Kingdom\, honoring The British Ambassador\, Her Excellency Dame Karen Pierce DCMG and Sir Charles Roxburgh KCB. With every Gala since 1994\, the Foundation has honored a country that shares its commitment to ending cancer—past honorees include South Korea\, Australia and\, most recently\, Jordan. This year’s event\, themed\, An Indispensable Friendship\, will feature an evening of lively music and inspiring personal stories while highlighting some of the United Kingdom’s special splendor.   \nContinuing with tradition\, the Foundation will present the annual Cancer Champion awards. The Prevent Cancer Foundation will recognize Senator Thom Tillis and Representative Anna Eshoo for their significant contributions to increasing access to prevention and early detection services.  \nSen. Tillis\, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2021\, has been open about his own cancer journey to raise awareness about the importance of prioritizing routine screenings. He successfully passed an amendment to expand veterans’ access to breast cancer screenings and is a supporter of multi-cancer early detection technology\, evidenced by his co-sponsorship of the Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act.   \nAlongside Sen. Tillis\, Rep. Eshoo is a co-sponsor of the bipartisan Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act. She has also provided instrumental leadership on the Metastatic Breast Cancer Access to Care Act\, Reconstructive Breast Surgery Benefits Act\, Breast Cancer and Cervical Treatment Act and Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act.
