Carrie McMahon opened her home recently to the American Cancer Society. Chairs Lois Bradford and Pratt Austin-Trucks welcomed dozens of women who have volunteered their time in support of the nonprofit organization’s largest annual fundraiser, The Hope Gala.
The 34th Annual Hope Gala will be Aug. 23 at a private club and will honor loyal ACS supporters, the Tully family. The works of beloved Mountain Brook artist, Toni Tully, will be featured. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. with cocktails and a silent auction, followed by dinner and live auction. Emcees for the night will be Lenora Pate and Janice Rogers. Guin Robinson again will serve as auctioneer. Young supporters are invited to join the festivities when dancing begins at 9 p.m.
All funds raised benefit the American Cancer Society in Birmingham and the Joe Lee Griffin Hope Lodge. Tickets are $500 per couple for The Hope Gala and $150 per couple for the late party. For tickets, sponsorship information or volunteer inquiries, contact Libba Hardwick at 930-8883 or libba.hardwick@cancer.org.
