Notable Moments: After a 2-years of an in-person hiatus, long-time celebrity supporters of ‘Fight Night’ returned to join local philanthropists in support of the recently merged Gateway for Cancer Research & Celebrity Fight Night. The event drew actors, entertainers, athletes, philanthropists, researchers and leading medical professionals who participated in an exciting live auction featuring several one-of-a-kind luxury items. Many of the attendees have been personally impacted by cancer, proving business success and social status don’t matter as cancer doesn’t discriminate.
