Two Events, One Cause

In case you missed it, A Silver Lining Foundation (ASLF), founded by NBC5's Dr. Sandy Goldberg, held its annual Donor Appreciation Night at the Seneca Hotel September 18. A cheery Dr. Sandy hugged and chatted with guests, while everyone enjoyed cocktails and honored the donors who supported ASLF during the past year.

ASLF, founded in 2002, provides screening mammograms and breast cancer resources to uninsured and underinsured patients. ASLF strives to ensure dignified, respectful and equal access to quality cancer education and services for all, a cause near and dear to the hearts of all who attended the event.

The party continues this weekend as Dr. Sandy and her pals host their annual fundraising gala, A Sterling Event, on Saturday, October 4, at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place (2233 South Martin L. King Drive), with cocktails at 6:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 7:30 p.m. Rob Elgas and Ginger Zee, two of NBC 5's other familiar faces, are hosting the black tie bash, which will include dancing, a raffle and a live auction. Tickets are available for $300 per person, or $3,000 per table. For tickets and more information on A Silver Lining Foundation, visit http://www.asilverliningfoundation.org/.
