Edison High School (Huntington Beach, California) seniors Karly Freeman and Kailea Nuzzo have created a fundraiser with the goal of raising money for pancreatic research. Their friend and neighbor, NBA referee Greg Willard, has been named as honorary beneficiary for the March 24, '13 fundraiser Cheers to a Cure, with proceeds benefitting the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PCAN).The Cheers to a Cure website describes the event as "a night of wine and hors d'oeuvres as we come together to support a great cause," featuring a silent auction and opportunity drawings. Items include a week's stay in Bali Indonesia, surfboards, golf clubs and, of course, basketball tickets.
In lieu of attending the event, donations are being accepted under the designation "CIBACS Foundation."
Cheers to a Cure Benefitting PCAN takes place at the Huntington Beach Art Center, 3/24/13, 4-7pm.
