The Rotary Club of Scottsdale North will host its 4th annual fundraising event on Saturday, March 9, to benefit Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children, a Scottsdale-based charity that provides social, emotional and financial support directly to families going through the journey of caring for a child with cancer.
The fundraising event will take place at Pinnacle Peak Village on the patio of the General Store, 8711 E. Pinnacle Peak Rd. in Scottsdale from 5:30 – 8:30 pm. The tickets cost $40 per person and include two glasses of wine or beer (additional drinks may be purchased), small plates/heavy appetizers, live music by the band Train Wreck and opportunities to bid on silent and live auction items.
All proceeds from the event will support Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children through the Scottsdale North Rotary Foundation, a 501 (c) (3) tax exempt organization. Purchase tickets online at www.rotaryscottsdalenorth.org/fundraiser.html. For questions, please contact Ed Brachocki at 480-229-4258.
Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children was founded in 2013 after Chrisie Funari, founder and CEO, lost her daughter, Ava to cancer at the age of 5. It benefits over two-thirds of the children in Arizona diagnosed with cancer. The Foundation’s programs are designed to meet the needs of children and families battling pediatric cancer such as financial assistance and physical support. Their newest program, Four Paws for Healing, a K9 Companion program, provides medical and emotional support to the families through regular in-home visits and service dog placement.
