For 30 years, the American Cancer Society Heroes of the Year Luncheon has brought together New York’s philanthropic leaders who share a commitment to community health, scientific advancement, and cancer research. Each year, the Luncheon honors individuals who exemplify a dedication to balancing professional success, family, and philanthropy. Since its inception, the event has raised more than $6.5 million in support of the American Cancer Society’s patient programs and research.
For more than 10 decades, the American Cancer Society has been dedicated to pursuing better outcomes for every cancer, every life. Today, more people are surviving cancer than ever before, but there is still work to be done. Join us, support us, and help us end cancer as we know it, for everyone.
