Cancer Services – Journey Around The World from Media 401 on Vimeo.

On February 25, we will “Journey Around the World” to raise money for our programs to support people with cancer in our community. We invite you to bring your appetite and join us on this special night.

Now in its 9th year, the Design on Life Event is bigger and better than ever before. “Journey Around the World” will feature a wine tasting and a sampling of international cuisine, as well as a silent and live auction. We’ve secured some exciting auction items, including a trip to Hawaii, fine jewelry, stunning artwork, celebrity autographed memorabilia and much more! View our online catalog to catch a sneak peek of auction items up for bid.

This just in! We will host a raffle for your chance to win an iPad 2!

Our host and travel guide for the evening’s events is the lovely and charismatic Barb Richards of WAJI-Magic 95.1 FM. Upon arrival, you will receive your “passport”, which serves as your ticket to bid on amazing auction items. Take home a lavish gift basket knowing your dollars will directly impact the lives of your community neighbors. Proceeds from the event benefit programs supporting individuals in our community who are affected by cancer. Each year Cancer Services helps over 2,300 individuals and their families by providing financial assistance, medical supplies and equipment, and emotional support.

We look forward to seeing you and your entourage at the gate. Bon Voyage!
