27th Collaborating for A Cure Gala

Over the years, thousands have joined the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation at its annual Collaborating for a Cure Gala, also known simply as "The Waxman".

Together we have invested more than $120 million, funding some of the brightest minds in cancer research around the world.

This year's Gala will be held on Thursday, November 21st at Cipriani Wall St. Cocktail reception begins at 6:30pm.

We are excited to announce that The Tedeschi Trucks "Fireside Live" will return as our musical performance but with a "very" special guest!

Stay tuned for more details.
